In 2023 Arlington is +165 run differential and finished 90-72 and got the wild card. Yeah, it was so ridiculous. As an Astros fan, 2016’s “the rangers won another fucking 1 run game?!” = 2023’s “Dusty’s fucking with us again with this lineup”

October 6, 20232 yr because of money I agree...but I would take Correa over Pena everyday if money/age weren't factors

October 6, 20232 yr Hypothetically, If the choice is between Dusty returning and Ausmus as manager, who do you choose?
October 6, 20232 yr JV, Fram, France, Urquidy Brown long term relief, Javi 1-2 trouble relief, Abreu Press to close. Altuve Breg Yordan Tuck Abreu Chas Diaz Pena Maldy -Brantley off the bench since it doesn’t sound like he’s healthy enough for full game. -Meyers can come in for speed. -Martinez and Singleton don’t make it. Kessinger has more versatility on the roster. -Game 3 Diaz should start but who knows bc Dusty. 3 minutes ago, TonyTexas said: Hypothetically, If the choice is between Dusty returning and Ausmus as manager, who do you choose?

October 6, 20232 yr I just discovered in the Bauer thread that other fans don’t hate the Astros team, but rather just Astros fans. That’s so fucking weird though, because Altuve and Breggy get booed heartily on the road, but other Astros do not. It’s all so confusing( But it isn’t.)
October 6, 20232 yr Who gives a flying fuck? You are supposed to want haters. You just shit down their necks and move on.

Plus I can see how season 1 of new blood orioles/rangers is better than re-runs (Astros winning LDS for 7th straight time)
October 6, 20232 yr 3 hours ago, TonyTexas said: Hypothetically, If the choice is between Dusty returning and Ausmus as manager, who do you choose? Ausmus. I would also AIDS over syphillis explosive diarrhea over non stop vomiting etc and so forth but not lining up for any of that.

I am mystified by the Machete over Diaz and literally anyone over Chas lineups. However, it is hard to argue with the results. Between giant douche and turd sandwich, I pick Dusty.
