Bring home the Bacon, Coach Baker! I just hope he keeps making good decisions with his pitchers. I think he is going about the next two games backwards......Urquidy should start game 6. I don't see how 14 pitches on Sunday night should keep him from starting tomorrow. As it is, he plans to start Luis Garcia on three days rest which seems foolish. I hope his magic continues and it works out. |

Dusty might have been the right Hire after the debacle of the so-called Cheating. Maybe there really was wholesale cheating. I don't think Dusty is the Long Time Solution for the Coach of the team. The Players and attitudes of the younger kids coming up have dramatically changed. I think they need to find the right fit for a coach that will be here for three to five years. What have Dusty one more year with the young guys and then change I don't think that is in the best health of the overall team. JMHO
I freely admit I am not a stat nerd and really don't know many players other than the ones who play for the Astros so I may not be completely right. I just would prefer that Dusty not come back just for one more year considering Dusty age.

Dusty's best suited for a sub .500 team with aged pitchers who don't have much up side risk in their future. . |

My biggest gripe about Dusty is that he doesn't appear to be a fan of reviewing calls. Many times this season, it seemed like he declined to ask for a review when it was pretty clear we had a case.
