The risk is losing a random game in July with a 13.5 game lead in the division.

Seems worth it to me

The problem isn't losing one game in July, its when he does this over and over again, potentially jeopardizing our standings.

I'm okay with testing guys but you don't need to do it 1/3 of the year… I will give credit to Dusty in that last year he managed the postseason exceptionally well.

Well it's worked out fine for us in recent years.

It's just how the FO does things and not a Dusty Baker thing.

It sure seems like a much more common occurrence under Dusty than it was under Hinch but maybe that's just me….

strangely enough...it's a small bonus for the guys that don't make the all-star team.

they get to relax & recover in Houston for 3 days

Bregman, Tucker & Gurriel have started mores Games than any Yankee.

Hinch routinely rested players and posters complained then also.

Starting every game just does not seem to be spending the organization values. Metrics must show more days off are good.

I'm having a hard time with this new strategy the Astros are deploying which seems to suggest getting behind early is a virtue.

Well we are going against Keller who has been very up and down (he's on my fantasy team). We have a chance for sure

Pretty sure metrics don't count at this point. They are kicking our ass.
