    Dusty making his veterans happy while sacrificing the Astros. Hoping for a blow out so that Toothy can use Montero.

    Agreed, 100%. This is also the easiest / least challenging most feasible solution... "FIX" to make proactively as a manager (or GM, however the power/decision falls in the office).
    I get it... the Stros have a fcked year for injuries in all the wrong places all in the most convenient time of the season... yet the "managing" has been lethargic and "well, you know, its whatever we just gotta find a way" SSDD expected/accepted approach. Blows my mind.

    Next time we see Montero will be with a lead in a high leverage situation. Bank on it.

    Dusty's mindframe is injured. I said before he is the easiest most obvious fix. No trade, surgery, or activation from the IL is needed. Just play your best players

    No they don’t… Javier pitching. And if they do…. They need more pitching.

    Pitching is everything.

    What just happened? 2nd and 3rd with no outs and they got them both home?! That shouldn’t be as shocking as it is. Lol
