Maton made his pitch. Tailor made DP. Just awful.

Just fire Dusty tonight. There's no reason that man should be employed anywhere in baseball at any level

I don't care for Dusty but I am not sure there is much he could have done tonight to fix things besides start the best players (Diaz over Maldy).

You want to make a statement?

DFA Maldonado for the passed ball.
Send Kessinger down tonight.

They're gonna have to put framber on the IL just to get a pitcher up for tomorrow. The bullpen is torched. Anybody they can send down?

Tell me what in the hell Dusty was to do with that tonight. All of the reliable guys completely screwed up. If you can't trust Framber, Abreu, and Pressly to protect 6 and 3 run lead respectively, what the hell can you do?

Better win the next seven games to make up for whatever that was.

If Peña was too hurt to go into the field, Dusty should have manned up and removed him from hitting in the top half.

This is what happens when we are playing half of the starters we should be.

Maybe it's a good thing Dana got to watch the biggest **** show of the past 7 years firsthand, hopefully an even greater sense of urgency will be coming

I can understand losing a game to the Angels, just going 2/3 this weekend was the goal.

But you can't lose a game that you led 9-3 in the 7th, and then 12-9 in the 9th.

All 3 bullpen guys (Maton not included) absolutely sucked so bad that you can't even blame Dusty for this one.

Agree. Dusty should be fired anyway because he's just terrible and has already cost this team multiple games this year. But this one was just the guys on the field failing at every single thing they needed to do to protect not one, but two 3+ run leads. Total team loss.

Dubon splits time at shortstop once Altuve returns

Pena is a huge disappointment at the plate

What the hell can he do? Honestly.

To fill a SP and 2 bullpen arms, you are going to have to give up a lot. And the Astros are not the only buyers…

Maton nailed it. Press did get 5 outs though. And he Induced ground balls outside of Ohtani bomb

I don't care for Dusty but I am joy sure there is much he could have done tonight to fix things besides start the best players (Diaz over Maldy).
Let me take a crack at this:

- not bring Framber back out for the 7th while being up 6 runs and him coming off an injury
- not pulling Framber after the 2-run homer, allowing him to of course get re-injured 2 pitches later
- never once giving the ump an earful for missing 6 game-altering calls
- not having Maton or anyone else ready to move when it was obvious Pressly didn't have it tonight and was well over his season-high in pitches
- not walking Renfroe in the 9th in what was an OBVIOUS intentional walk situation and ended up costing us the game

He cramped up during his AB. Nothing Dusty could have done to prevent it.

Everyone calling for Dana to do something is cracking me up. He's working the phones hard. The asking prices right now are astronomical. Moves will be made. It's just a matter of time.

Another example of W-L being a ****ty metric. Maton gets the L in this one…

Who is gonna be the guy on this team to step up and actually say something? I know I'm not the only one tired of the lolly gagging bs that is displayed night in night out. News flash: if you're trying just hard enough to get into the postseason, you won't make it there

What is he supposed to do? Despite what you read on this forum, the farm is trash. There are no difference makers within two years of contributing. Anybody with a pulse has been given a shot.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.
