With Chas as the exception, as it is known and documented that he hates Chas.

I think hate is a very strong word. I think the way the go about their business is very different and Dusty doesn't prefer it, so he defers to guys that work more his style.

But, as Dusty himself said, sometimes you just bang your way into a spot. Chas has certainly done that.

I'll chime in with what I know.

Dusty is a super old school guy and he has a super old school approach to managing. If you don't do things his way, he's not going to like you.

The Astros have a ton of gym rats on the team. Altuve, Bregman, Brantley, Yordan, Dubon, Peña are all known for their work ethics. They fit well with Dusty's approach. Chas is a little different. He's a good dude and he's liked in the clubhouse but he doesn't have the same mentality those other guys have. But hey… he still performs. Some guys just have different approaches and that's fine. But when you have an old school skipper like Dusty, it may rub him the wrong way.

I'm not saying it's right or wrong. It's just how it is. It's also a part of the reason it took Yainer a while to crack the lineup.

There may be more to the story here, but that's about all I know/am willing to put out on a message board. Bottom line… I think Dusty needs to get over it.


Here you go. This is from June for anyone who missed it.

Can't watch that one with a full count
