    Chas a loser
    Espada a loser who had piss running down his leg all series

    Diaz still a nobody who makes zero difference in the playoffs

    The Tigers were the worst matchup in a 3 game set. We didn't play well but this team has been a joy to watch for 8 years and this won't end it. Keep your head up.

    Daiz had the only RBI off a base hit in this series.

    We wanted to win the World Series last year when the Astros had the easiest possible path to a championship. Dusty said he made up his mind in the middle of the season he was going to retire because of the constant chatter about his managerial decisions around Chas and Madly. So, he said **** you, I'm doing this my way since I'm leaving anyway. A competent manager...no competent human being that is familiar with baseball would have seen what he had with Diaz in the first half of the season and spoken to Maldy about reducing his starts while talking him up that he's still a big part of the team and needs him to work with Diaz and pitchers during this adjustment. Instead, he went the other way and gave Daiz fewer starts down the stretch and none in the postseason. Dusty absolutely failed this organization last year due to pure pettiness.

    Was it Espada's fault both of his 'closers' threw the game away?

    It’s his fault his team went down with a whimper just like their manager

    Good one. Swept at home by the Rangers while starting the worst offensive player in baseball history.

    Yeah, but Maldy was present in the inning where Jose Altuve hit a 3 run bomb to win game 5.

    Maldy inspired Jose to hit that, no Maldy, no homer, as seen in this series. :D

    So you would rather get swept in the Wildcard then get to the ALCS? I know the reason you are saying it.

    Just enjoy it man! I obviously think you're a clown and an embarrassment but still happy for you to have this moment, like we had ours in 17 and 22

    Abso****inglutely! This one stings WAY less than last year. No doubt the Astros take care of the D-Back so the Astros had a 3rd Championship denied because of a petty manager.

    Any “fan” who says they would rather lose in the first round, that tells you they have no stomach for intense competition
