Given the timeline, manager was the most pressing need to get done with the start of Spring training coming soon. Dusty isn't a long term hire...he's here for a year or two and Click gets the next one. Dusty was simply a stop gap, a known commodity with a ton of experience who gets you through the shitstorm of off the field noise this year and will fight for his players.

James Click did a 50 min podcast with Mark Feinsand last year. McTaggart tweeted the link to it but here it is for those too lazy. It’s really good stuff and very much worth the listen

Exactly. He will be solid and get the team through this year. Hopefully they play with a chip on their shoulder.

The last stop gap the Astros got worked out pretty well

I am lucky to have CSN, and I ended up watching more baseball games this season than I have in the last two combined. the draw for me was watching some younger players develop. We have a few guys up now who can stick and be good: Castro, dominguez, Cosart, Obie, Villar, Grossman, all fun to watch. Altuve is a good stop gap player. With the wave of studs coming up in the next two years we will be built for long term winning at the ML level starting in 2016

Mind the gaps. The gaps are key.

The red star era has officially become a throwback.

Was hoping never to see the red-era uniforms ever again.

I am glad they’re finally giving the 72-74 era uniforms a whirl.

I hate Drayton for forcing those colors on the franchise. Orange and navy should never be messed with in my opinion.

What is scary to me as a mortal is I remember the 20th and 25th Anniversary of the Astrodome patches. Yikes I am getting old.

I like the blue with the goldish star too. I would have been fine with going back to those instead of the current ones. I like both

Dusty gets to manage the AL all stars.

How awesome would it be if the Astros fans would pump out the votes to stack the all stars with Astros players... similar to what the Royals did in 2016?
