    He did come back the last time this happened the next day.... any word if it was the same leg?

    Has there been an X-ray negative tweet? If not, I'd be a tad concerned...

    I think we lost the game because our guys didn't hit and JV didn't pitch well.

    But, Dusty, Dusty, Dusty...ok I guess.

    A lot of those strikes you are talking about where pecker high without a lot of movement

    A lineup built to win could have got to him good

    If Chas was in the lineup then the rest of the Astros lineup would have been all over those peckers? Everyone failed yesterday including Dusty but yesterday Dusty's failures had the least impact between starting pitching, offense, and managing.

    Ideally if everyone is healthy I wouldn't have Dubon/Meyers play at all but If Dusty is so intent on giving them ABs so they don't get rusty, it should only be games when Diaz is catching. Pena/Meyers/Maldy or Pena/Dubon/Maldy has too high risk of being a black hole offensively if Pena is on one of his cold streaks. Their is not much margin for error the rest of the season.

    Dusty benches chas 2 of the last 3 games and then bats him 8th. He wants everyone to know that Chas is still just a part time player on his team.

    Why does Dusty do this? Why couldn't he have Chas lead off, Dubon shouldn't be getting the most at bats. Fck Dusty, and my coworker is attending this game...so I expect another lost.

    Sub optimal lineup, and Maldy calling the game. Yes, Dusty.

    Should be fired for the way he treats Chas.

    Hoping Keuchel does a solid and shuts out the Rangers.

    Even if Diaz was catching yesterday, you would have had some variant of Pena/Meyers/Dubon due to Altuve.

    you would hate anyone that was the coach that didn’t do what you thought was best. He is doing what he is doing for a reason so just let it play out
