I've never hated any manager or coach of my teams this much.

Ya'll are panicking.

Happ goes tonight...he's terrible. If your hitters aren't complete idiots, all they have to do is walk up to the plate and just stand there. He'll walk at least half of them.

Hanson goes tomorrow night for ya'll. He's made the Astros his personal bitch. In 5 starts he's 3-0 with a 0.97 ERA .134BAA and 42K/5BB in 37 innings. FML.

It's going to be a long season if we are hating him this much after 3 games. Unfortunately, I don't see him going anywhere unless we have a disastrous first half of the season.

Is there any other manager in baseball who would willfully put his least rangy outfield in the lineup with a fly ball pitcher on the mound?

By baseball I mean tee ball, highschool, college, minors, and majors. Also, Japan, the Dominican, Venezuela, etc.

I hate to break it to you, but your roommate isn't wearing that helmet all the time because he's a big Lance Armstrong fan.

I am in no way, shape or form laughing at the ATL fans posting in this thread. But, I have to admit, as a life-long Astros fan, this thread makes me feel better. Misery loves company.

David O'Brien ?

#Braves manager FG said just wanted to get Francisco in lineup today vs LH before Chipper returns, to see what can do. Diaz good #s vs. Happ

I just expected Frediot to say he want to rest Jason. That would have been dumb enough, but expected from the Frediot. This explanation takes the motherfricking cake though. Here's to you Fredi!

Tomorrow night I believe, the Astros are gonna have a ceremony honoring chipper Jones. Biggio will be a part of it.

Indeed plus the Astros will be wearing the Colt 45's jerseys and the stadium give away is a 45's cap.

The gun is now back on the jersey after the team petitioned and MLB said it was up to the team.

Any time you can make your team worse at the plate, in the field, and on the bases, you have to do it.

I get Fredi wanting Diaz to start vs. a LHP (I disagree, but I understand). But Francisco should sit, not Heyward.

There's no world in which Francisco 3B/Prado LF/Diaz RF is better-fielding or -hitting than Prado 3B/Diaz LF/Heyward RF.

and if Francisco must start, Bourn should be the next to sit.

You can't spell Fredi Gonzalez without "Go Diaz".

I'm getting sick of this. I just want a manager who doesn't troll us like this.
