The MBL family went to the Space Cowboys game today. Lemme tell you, there isn't much hope down there. Best hitters were Loperfido, Dezenzo and Z Cole. Nobody else had any kind of stats and today nobody really hit at all.
Costanza threw five innings of 1 run ball though.

i think at this point we're better off just missing the playoffs entirely. fire espada, start over next season with hopefully a decent pitching staff.

I'd just rather us wet fart our way in over dicklington, but the amount of quit & suck is laughable

I don't think the problem is Espada. It's not like this is a top 10 team that he mismanaged to an average record.

This is probably the 20th best team in the MLB finishing with probably the 15th or 16th best record.

The problem is a steady stream of bad GM free agent signings and the slow hollowing out of the roster and inability to find and develop players to replenish pipeline.

This is a bottom 5 MLB team if you didn't have Yordan and Pena.

Varsho has been a crap addition at the deadline. I think we could have gotten more for a young pitcher that eats innings and has some flashes of talent.
The rest of the outfield is just terrible.

espadas management decisions have cost us more games than he has won us.

I feel like every manager does that. The only manager I ever remember being happy with (going all the way back to Art Howe and Terry Collins) was Hinch. I don't remember having a lot of complaints about him.

I thought Dusty Baker made tons of very questionable decisions but he ended up winning a championship, so what do I know.

Loved Hinch for his part in reviving he Astros from the dead and for the title, but his refusal to put in Cole in game 7 in 2019 was and still is infuriating.

The 2019 team was clearly the best in baseball though, can't say I've ever thought that about Aggie Football

I'd argue that the 2012 team, by the end of the season was by far the best team in college football.

We got hosed by a phantom block in the back call vs. l$U and even then if our kicker doesn't gakk a couple XP and gimme field goals we win that game, win the SEC-W and championship game and then boatrace Notre Dame for the national title.

Poor millennial didn't experience some of the glory years of Jackie or R.C.

Yeah, I also feel like great players bail out a lot of manager decisions. When a manager has two great options he looks great either way.

But the managers always look bad with mediocre teams because the players don't bail them out on bad decisions.

Aggies have got to let this go.

If the "what-if" game is in play, alternate history could have easily swung the other way where Georgia likely would have laid the smaketh down on Manziel.

Or the hurricane LaTech game happened as scheduled but Manziel was hurt and never played the rest of the season.

The scenarios are endless.

A lot of dreamers are further tempted to proclaim A&M the almost national champs because of the OU cotton bowl. OU had a mediocre defense, so its not like A&M's #5 offense BF'ing OU's #50 defense was a surprise.

But A&M did in fact lose to UF and LSU and none of this matters.

Did the Astros get to enjoy whipping the snot out of the stupid-ass commie patchouli-smelling sips?

No.
