Cam Smith is why you can’t let Dana Brown handle the draft and the trade deadline this year.

Espada sucks but this team isn’t going anywhere, anyway. The far bigger problem to fix is whatever the frick is going on with ownership and the front office.

Eighteen million a year for a guy that can't find the strike zone until the bases are loaded and needs an interpreter for the pitching coach to talk to him.

If Jim Crane wants to just light money on fire, I'd be happy for him to send some to me.

Got him gone in the third after walking 6 in 2+.

Prize jewel of the Tucker trade.

No, that's just Altuve being Altuve.

The Astros have lost to the Reds 453 times more than any other team in the majors.

Well, that figures, because the Astros have played the Reds more than any other team in the majors. They've also beaten the Reds more than any other team. The Reds were the only team that was a Houston division rival during the entire divisional era when the Astros were in the NL.

Astros and Reds were in the old NL West when it was formed in 1969, then were the only 2 West teams that went to the Central when it was formed in '94.

This organization has become a joke.

I don’t see a scenario where Dana Brown makes it to the trade deadline

Let's hope. Also wouldn't mind it happening before the draft.

Let an interim handle the draft and the trade deadline. Then go get a true baseball ops guy, empower him and stay out of his way for 3-4 years. And lose Jeff Bagwell's phone number.

I'll take the lead for however long it lasts.

Which was not for very long. I'd prefer never to see Ryan Weiss in an Astros uniform again. What a shitty signing.

Even Yankee haters will have to concede the dude was a legend.

He did the Hawks and was a really good baseball broadcaster with the Braves on TBS in the '80s. He was enjoyable to listen to on the Braves game with Ernie, Pete and Skip. They all had great chemistry.

I don't want to speak ill of the dead so I'll just say his Yankees career it was legendary, but not in the way people normally think of the word "legendary."

Still, I'll give the man credit for having a 30-year streak of not missing a game with the Yankees. That's really impressive.

He'll complain and then go out and spend $50 million. If it bugs him so much, don't do it.

All of these coaches complain about the rules, and then they go and do things that contribute to the issues about which they're complaining.
