The more I e thought about it, the best way to get rid of Dusty is to win the whole damn thing. He can finally get his WS win as a manager, and go off in the sunset. If we get close and lose, he will be too tempted to come back. He also knows our house of cards starting rotation is about to collapse and losing Carlos will make it a lot harder to win next year, so leaving on a high note is the obvious better choice.

But why is Chris Bassitt coping for his team and just saying
"everyone else was doing it" too?!?!?!?!?!?!?

The series isn’t over yet. If the Astros lose 2 in a row at home, there are ample chances for Baker to contribute to that. Hopefully, we won’t have to have this conversation but don’t sell him short. He blew a 5-0 lead in Game 6 of the World Series in 2002 needing 1 win.

I’ve never seen a fan base so down on a coach who is one win away from taking his team to the WS. It’s true LT pathetic…. I’m sorry he didn’t go 162-0.
What a bunch of losers.

I've been saying this, and I completely agree. Let's send Dusty out on top!

I've been right there with most of y'all as Dusty critics but it's only fair to point out that he has pressed the right buttons this postseason. The bullpen has delivered and that's in no small part from Dusty putting them in the right positions (he had plenty of trial and error in the regular season).

Even in the games we were blown out he got us through the games with the right arms still being available for later. Maybe this is the go-round where the stars align. All that said, I do want a new manager next year.

Keep wearing that JV letter jacket you got donated to you from goodwill. It fits you so well.

You should leave all sports threads and stick to the OT topics on the Home/Garden and Money boards. You're clearly more equipped for them.

frick all this right here.

The entire fricking baseball world has lost the minds with Astros trash cans... astros buzzers... astros smoke signals from the Appalachian mountains... cheaters! cheaters! cheaters!

If they are all allowed to eliminate all logical thought and pursue nothing but emotional babble... the least that I should be allowed to do is blame everything I hate about this season on Dusty Baker.

Maybe I'm right. Maybe I'm wrong. Either way, frick Off, Dusty Baker.

I’m late to the party today, somewhere out in the country near Bienville and Webster parish. I had to take my mom to her follow up at LSU Ochsners this morning.

All is well and she’s hoping to watch at least a little of the Astros tonight!

So here’s to a big win tonight! Hope some of y’all are enjoying the game there tonight.

Wearing my shirt from our last 2 wins and here’s our Jobu and sage for luck.

What’s the chance I could find a single ticket outside the stadium tonight?

Likely? Unlikely? Worth a shot?

No team has ever lost a clinching game 6 at home and went on to win game 7.

Is there a Stros forum like TD with a ticket resell board?



There are 3 different Facebook pages where season ticket holders resell. Houston Astro Nation Ticket and Memorabilua, Astros Ticket Marketplace, and Houston Astros Ticket Exchange. These pages are run by folks who police it really well and there is very little scamming. I’ve bought and sold a lot there.
