Man took over a 106-loss Astros team and turned them into a 100+ win WS winning juggernaut within a five year span. Legendary stuff.

Beat the number 3 payroll in the DS beat the number 2 payroll in the ALCS and then beat the number 1 payroll in the WS.

Epstein is good. Cubs were a mixture of tanking (like the Astros) and big budget acquisitions though.

Is there any way to get a play by play from an Astros fan on how he put this together?

Guy earned the hell out of this.

This ain't the NBA my man.

Easier said than done in baseball.

Legit thought of you tonight. Baseball is tough my e-frand. Nothing to be ashamed about tonight. Y'all will be right back in it.
