Can't wait for the next manager to realize Maton is only good to start a clean inning and uses him that way

Maton finally stranded a runner. The small victories I guess.

Who's better? Brandi Carlisle or Belinda Carlisle? I've actually never heard of Brandi Carlisle.

This team has been trying to tell us it actually sucks for a while and particularly the last month. Time to listen I guess.

Royals will have won 8 of their last 9 after tonight

Based on our current play winning the series is the bar

Anyone who thought we would sweep these guys is delusional. There is no magic switch to flip for this team

We should've fired Dusty the morning of November 6, 2022.

yes, we should've been the first team in the history of sports to fire their head coach after winning a championship.

A semi-competent manager will do so many things differently; it's absolutely no shock that teams always seem to excel immediately after Dusty is dismissed.

How does someone give up 7 runs on 4 hits and 3 walks while striking out 10? Just got out of the movies

We fired our GM and he was light years better than Dusty

Fired, asked to retire, call it whatever you want. It was a devastating mistake to allow Dusty back for 2023 We already have it confirmed that Dusty didn't have the trust and authority from the FO to manage the team in the playoffs last year

We didn't need to fire him. He signed a one year deal last year, didn't he?

Fired? No, but there was absolutely no excuse for renewing his contract and bringing him back; the signs about what he has done to this season were there throughout last season.

Getting hot in October excused a lot of things that shouldn't have been forgotten.

Click and Dusty both should've been out after last season with Dusty in a "go out on top" pat on the back.

If Dusty had retired after the 2022 World Series, pretty much nobody in Houston would ever have a negative thing to say about him

Now I cant think of anything positive to say about him

I'm of a mind that he got a ring in spite of himself.

I'm still convinced anybody could have managed this team to a World Series win last year. Every single pitcher was on point (minus LMJ).

Also my post was pointing to he managed very well from 2020-2022, he should have pulled a Peyton Manning and retired on top.

Even if it was dumb luck it happened. Do people not remember him pressing pretty much all the right buttons in the ws? Even if it was dumb luck it worked
