Dusty doesn't need your congrats my guy nor does anyone on the Astros. They just need rings. And they have them. Go pay your star boy 40 mill a year to **** the bed in the ALCS again.
Click takes the spot as the Astros GM with the most postseason wins. He may not be a builder, but in 3 years, he's proven he's the best wartime consigliere the Astros have ever had.

Strange would be an understatement if we let go of him, though Crane has earned all the runway you could ask for with decision making. My guess is he’s brought back on a short term deal. If Dusty wants back there’s no way he’s gone even if Crane wanted it. That’d be a PR and locker room atomic bomb. Cranes only question will be how many years do you want to stay.
