It's not as black and white when you're up 5 in GM 2 of a doubleheader a 3 games series starting tomorrow.

Like I said...I'm not upset at it. He was trying to save arms and had the cushion to give it a go.

2.5 games behind them for the best record in the AL.

All of you "chill out" guys will change your tune when Dusty's feeble calls end up costing us the games that matter. The entire park could see Bielak was out of gas and we ended up burning another arm anyway.

Stanton on deck. We got lucky. Not gonna always play out that way.

Great wins today. Bullpen essential for playoffs, Yankees haven't fared well versus Astro starters

Bad call keeping him in. Getting lucky doesn't make it right.

If that's a single header and we don't have to fly overnight to that needledicked town up west, I guarantee you beilak doesn't go out for the ninth. In fact, if it's a single header, he's not in the damn roster

MLB network switched over to the Oakland Detroit game once the Astros were done. There MIGHT be 50 people at the game in Oakland

Harry - You need to enjoy it while it's good. Eeyore has the monopoly on pessimism. The Yankees do like to throw up all over themselves when the Astros take the field.

If Dusty regularly made good moves in "single headers" I wouldn't be worried about it…but leaving guys in too long is just one of his bad habits.

Good words and I hear you. I'm just worried Dusty is going to cost us.

I partially disagree. We need to make a statement against Seattle. We are 6-6 on the season against them and won 1 of 4 series against them.

We are 58% through the regular season and are 2.5 games off having the best record in MLB. At some point you must acknowledge it is more than luck.
of course it's not luck, Who said it was?!?!

we have a great roster and Dusty is a good dude with a lot of experience.

I also think you have to acknowledge that he's been run off immediately after 97-win seasons (and his former teams have taken the next step immediately after he left) for a reason. Managing is magnified in the playoffs.

And after two games post all star break, the Astros have brought the games back for AL home field advantage by half

I think his job massaging egos and keeping players engaged more than balances out his gaffes. Players play, coaches coach.

Still important to take 2 or 3 from them in this next series just to shut their momentum down abruptly
