If Ausmus is hired, that should eliminate any question as to who is really in charge. If there are still any questions out there

Half of this post from September sounds like it’s still possible.

Might as well take this franchise out back if Ausmus is hired. Because it would be mother fricking OVER.

As a Pels and Saints fan, I always keep saying Gayle is the dumbest, most complacent owner in sports. I think that statement is now false and the correct answer is Jim fricking Crane. In what world mother fricking world is hiring Ausmus as manager even close to being a good idea?

Being compared to Gayle Benson is not a good thing, but Jeff Bagwell has become Jim Crane’s Mickey Loomis.

Congrats to Christian Walker for his fourth gold glove. Well deserved.

Now if he could just get a hit with runners in scoring position

Nice FB video

Anyone else watching Randy's introductory press conference right now?

ETA: my initial takeaway is that this guy is a total douchebag

TBH Crane and Bagwell are pussies. You want to be in charge? Put your name on it. Name yourself the GM, put Bagwell in the dugout. Don't hide behind other people and blame them for your failures.

People pick on Jerry, but at least he's clear that he is in charge and the decisions are his. I can at least respect that, even if it's ill advised.

Astros owner Jim Crane on Randy Flores: "He'll have full authority."
This quote was funny to me because the very next question was about the team interviewing managers without a GM

I was hoping Flo would show up wearing a sombrero and poncho and calling Mctaggart Ese. He seemed to be acting very stereotypically white corporate executive to me.

….why did Rome leave out what Crane said immediately after that? Paraphrasing…” when things needed some help or I was asked for help, I pitched in a number of times in trying to retain guys or trying to get a guy to move over at the trade deadline… i’ll continue that area.”

We’re fricked.

It took Flores half a day to figure out Jake wasn't an answer.

He also picked up a pitcher from Rays minor league who might have a little potential.

Remember when he nearly hit .300 and we tried trading him? Good times
