Down to AAA he goes. I’ll keep saying it Crane needs to swallow his pride and sign Bauer

How does this depleted bullpen pick up 7 1/3 innings the rest of today? This dead arse may be a 30 spot

Sugar Land is one of the worst teams in AAA. Who's the f'ing genius that thought things would change with these pitchers? They suck

Pitching is an absolute f'ing disaster. What does Dana Brown do , other than shining Crane's shoes ?


Honestly, this is not on Dana Brown. He literally has zero options to work with - this is 100% on Crane and Bagwell for butchering the lineup and bullpen with bloated salaries and bloated first basemen.

There is nothing on the farm and those lost draft picks from the 2017 BS are finally proving to be as detrimental as we all knew they would be.

His options are:
- Trade Dubon
- Trade Bregman
- Trade Tucker
- Trade Pena

No one else offers any value that can improve this team. (not counting Alvarez, Altuve, and Diaz)

Their only hope is to limp through June and hope Verlander, LMJ, and Urquidy can actually give quality innings when they might-maybe-hopefully-who-are-we-kidding-they-wont-be-back return.

Garcia, Verlander, McCullers, Urquidy, Valdez, are all injured. What are they supposed to do?


And although he's horrible today, Hunter Brown was in the rotation quite a bit of last season. He was good for us during the end of the season in 2022 during the WS run. Where have you been?

Amazingly, Henley doesn’t look so bad right now.

On the radio this week, the talk guys were discussing this. They have heard he still has other legal issues or accusations that are not public at this time.

You know what? This is the first time I've notice that you can provide actual baseball discussion. You actually have a brain when you're not giving head to Judge.

Fortunately, none of us care about the opinion of Dusty Baker. He has fricked off, and we are glad for it.

79 win season would be an accomplishment with this team.

15 fricking hits! Not just batted around. Batted around 1.5 times!

Going back through the 2nd half struggles of last year, Hunter Brown has totaled a 7.66 ERA over 17 games with 88 hits allowed in 69.1 innings.


He has no business on a major league roster.

Friendly reminder that Dana Brown traded the farm for **maybe** a full combined season of JV

It was a full on Rams move. Looks good at first, but the piper always comes due.

Maybe they should just let Seth start or make all the prospects with stuff watch his tape over and over.

He's pretty damn good at getting outs topping out at 91. He and Bielak have been much needed steady innings eaters.

So many times, we see good decisions with bad results and that’s sound logic. But not in this case…to me that decision was always TBD dependent on another title. When it didn’t happen (regardless of reason) the decision immediately became bad.
