I didn't mind the decision at the time because it was necessary and prospects are so fickle there are very few that I would throw a stink about and I liked both Gilbert and Clifford.

They got JV he pitched well down the stretch and was fine in the post until Adolis homer. He got bailed out in that game and the Astros needed to win ONE out of two home games to advance to a World Series where they would be huge favorites. If you would have told anyone here that would be the scenario when the trade was made people would be over the moon with it. Just absolutely shitty results after they put themselves in a favorable spot

Oh I agree there, but that’s why I qualified it with “regardless of reason.” The rest of the team needed to do their part and they didn’t. Wasn’t JV’s fault at all, but they shite the bed so hard in August/September against their worst opponents and they needed a bigger bed shitting by the Rangers and Mariners to even make the postseason.
