Whether or not Correa is still here is yet to be determined. He is not my favorite player here like little Breggie is yours. Both are valuable to the team. Carlos has been here doing his job while little Breggie keeps having booboos. LOL Who is your favorite player? Kyle Tucker is my current favorite Astro. My all-time favorite Astro is Jose Crrrrruuuuuuzzzzzz.

That must be nice. I don't care that health and safety protocol bullshit as being injured. The last time they pulled that with him, it was a false alarm. He was in the dugout last night so I doubt if Covid had anything to do with it this time. Have you noticed how all the types of flu and many other illnesses seem to have disappeared...Everything is Covid. bullshit.

No, little Kyle is on the bullshit list aka health and safety protocols......little Breggie showed up to ST with leg issues and has been nursing his booboos ever since. How many times have we heard "he will be back soon" only for them to turn around and say he "was pulled from the Skeeters lineup". Word got out today that he was being activated Monday, and, Breggie says he knows nothing about it. They don't know when the hell he is coming back.

There are so many I liked, very few I didn't. Eusebio is a weird one to be one of my favorites. I had a lot of favorite former Astros.......Terry Puhl, Bob Watson, Cesar Cedeno, Bill Doran, Glenn Davis, for position players......Nolan Ryan, Joe Niekro, Dierker, Wagner, JR Richard, and Mike Scott. Of course, Biggio and Bagwell are right there with Jose Cruz.

Vintage Altuve game. 3-3, 2 doubles. This is a lot better than one home run, two popups and a K. This.

Jacob Wilson’s first hit as an Astro is a triple! That should shut Corch up ... for about a minute. lol Now, if we can find a way to shut you up. LOL Good luck with that, my dear friend. Well Astros fans, yesterday was a GREAT day for the team.Jake-O was VERY good! The pen (Maton, Taylor, and Baez) posted zeros in the runs column! As a whole, the bats were RED HOT, scoring the second most runs in a game this season! The A's lost so the Astros stretched their lead in the division by a game! Meanwhile, Aledmys Diaz got a day off, so he'll be fresh for a while going forward. I can't begin to express the importance of this man to the team this year. Jacob Wilson got his first hit as an Astro. A triple! ... then got his second hit as an Astro. A double! If that's not enough to put a smile on every Astros fan's face, there's icing on this very tasty cake... We had the pleasure of enjoying a failed attempt at Dusty-bashing: Chas scratched...Wilson in. And Dusty the Dummy keeps Diaz out of the lineup and inserts Wilson who couldn't hit the ball out of the infield if you put it on a tee. Go Dusty! GO ASTROS!!!

Go Dusty! GO ASTROS!!!I have never seen anyone who is more impressed with himself than you.............and, for no good reason. Old Dusty guessed right and made pee run down your leg while you giggled. Don't worry, Wilson will be back on the pine today. He is just holding down a spot until Bregman comes back and then he's gone. If I praised Dusty, you'd show up and call him an idiot. You are much too transparent. I don't expect you to shut up because big winds come from empty caves.

As expected, JIT's boy, Wilson, is back on the pine where he belongs........Chas still out with the sore wrist.......Yordan in LF, Brantley in RF......Jones DH.

That assessment is exactly what I'd expect from someone as short-sighted as you. Dusty is wise enough to know the regular season is a marathon, not a sprint. It's necessary to USE your reserves, both to keep your everyday players fresh AND to keep the reserves from rotting AND to find out who can be of use to you in the postseason, in the event they're needed. Even if Wilson remained hitless, resting Diaz had benefit. Even if Wilson never gets another hit as an Astro and he's used in a few more games, Dusty and the front office will have more information as to whether or not he can be of use in the postseason, if he's needed. The jury is still out on that, for sure. I don't consider the two extra base hits from Wilson as a confirmation that he's worthy. But it was a wonderful thing to see, given your penchant for repeatedly bashing Dusty and a few of the players. Dusty >>> You

Tell us something we don't know. You were wrong the last time you posted this crap and nothing had changed. Weren't you the genius who praised Dusty for using McCullers as a pinch hitter at Dodger Stadium?/ LOL LOL LOL You=Dusty. Both of you are clueless.

You have already presented your jibberish on the season being a marathon. Tell us something we don't know. That's hilarious. In one breath you call it 'jibberish' and in the next you claim to already know it. You obviously DON'T know and understand it. I'll repeat, even though I already know your little pea-brain can't comprehend this: It's necessary to USE your reserves, both to keep your everyday players fresh AND to keep the reserves from rotting AND to find out who can be of use to you in the postseason, in the event they're needed. WRONG! I don't agree with all of Dusty's moves but I'm not a blind hater like you, so I have no problem doing the correct ranking... Dusty > Me Me > You Dusty >>> You. Go Dusty!
Go Astros!!!

Go Astros!!!It becomes jibberish when you keep repeating yourself. There is a difference in being a "blind hater" and being critical of some of his baseball moves. You were the fool who thought using Lance to pinch hit was a smart move because he may have to hit in the post season. LOL LOL LOLl So, therefore YOU>NOBODY.

There is a difference in being a "blind hater" and being critical of some of his baseball moves There certainly is! I'll just leave these here, Hater ...Dusty is in the top 15 for managerial wins in a career. And has ZERO titles and wasted more talent than any manager who managed as long as he has. He is a joke.Any manager in baseball>Dusty. I don't like the SOB....have never liked him and never will like him.

I don't like the SOB....have never liked him and never will like him. I stand by every word of it. I think he's one of the worst managers in the game. If he had been in such demand, he would not have been sitting home unemployed when Crane hired him as a PR move. I don't like him as a manager........never have liked him as a manager...and never will. He has made bad moves with pitching that has cost us several games. He had the talent to win with the Reds and Nationals, and, NEVER took them anywhere and got eliminated. Before coming here, he was 23-32 in the post season and his teams lost 10 straight elimination games. He has done OK in the regular season most of the time, but, he is a terrible manager in the post season and it is mainly because of bad moves with his pitchers. You can think he is great if you want to be wrong. He has only won around 53% of his games overall and he sucks in the post season. If you think calling me a "blind hater" bothers me, you are sadly mistaken. I am 100% right about Dusty Baker. His record proves it. Stating facts doesn't make anyone a hater.
