    There is NO interest from the Astros in Cora. Too many of you are on a nostalgia trip with the Astros. 2015-2019 is gone. Never coming back. The Astros need to evolve with their new manager. Gut and Analytics will work with the right guy.

    Dusty should take a job with a rebuilding team.
    Show the young dudes the way.

    That goes for Hinch. It's time to move on to the next phase. The next iteration is the one that cements us as a dynasty and will take a manager that respects what's been done and what needs to be done to get a 3rd title in this window.

    I wanted Banister before the Dusty hire...I don't think it would be the worst decision just not likely.

    I can't believe Cora's name is being thrown around. Should be bring Beltran back too as the new Video Editor?

    My wish list in no particular order..

    Espada, Shildt, Hinch, or Counsell.

    I understand Hinch and Counsell may not be available, but with managers sometimes these can get worked around.

    Lets hope then that the rumors of Ausmus being a candidate for HC are greatly exaggerated.

    What did other teams see (or not see) in Espada that made him be passed over so often? He's interviewed a million times over the last 4 years.

    I have no issues if he's the guy, it's just a little odd to me. It gives Sam Cassell vibes, everybody talks him up but nobody wants to make him the man.

    Who's the guy that kept coming up as a Texans head coaching candidate that nobody could comprehend why? Feels similar to Ausmus name coming up here several times due to his personal ties.
