Since Dusty is old school, he will leave Maldy and Brantley in until after the 9th starts so he they get a standing ovation leaving the field.

Not worried about winning. Worried about the vets' feelings.

I just don't know if I get a good read on Espada's personality. Coupled with losing a few other manager jobs… eh I could take him or leave him.

But if he prevents Ausmus or some other awful retread, bring on the Espada Era.

Probably should wait to see if Maldy is due in the 9th

It was so easy to root for Altuve, Springer, Correa, young Bregman, etc. Those teams went out and had fun and it was contagious. This season has been 180 degrees from that. Call it mature, or professional if you want but this is sport. It's supposed to be fun. Very little of this season has felt like it.

Let them enjoy it. They've been owned by us for seven years. Has to feel good for them. And it's not like we're going anywhere. It'll be a fun rivalry. Kudos to them for finally making it to the adult table.

I'm so over Tucker. We may as well just field 8 guys and take an auto-out in his place.


I look forward to next year to see if a new manager and a legitimate catcher can extend the run, but I'm out on resigning Tucker. I don't think he's worth the $300 million he'll be seeking.
Not at all. He was a total no-show when it counted this year and a big reason why we are in this situation.


He had a great year. 30/30 doesn't grow on trees so I don't mean to discount what he accomplished in the regular season. I just can't see sinking that much money into Kyle Tucker. He's not the cream of the crop. You can go find guys that are close for much less time commitment. Tampa does it every year.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Well guys it's been fun. I always enjoy this thread. Guess it was time for Yankee Texans to get their time.

See you in the off-season thread

He's not.
Who's the next manager going to be. Espada would seem the the obvious choice so it probably not going to be him.


I don't even want Espada at this point. Too much Dusty stink on him. I want all fresh blood.


ETA: Unless AJ comes back

I think there was a real possibility that AJ came back in 2021 if COVID didn't happen.

I wouldn't mind if they won the ws. But, sorry, I can't root for someone like Garcia. Pimp a hr? Ok. But still standing in the box when one goes off the wall? Come on. And not learning so pimping another one your next ab?

Who was the guy on this thread that said he would just see the results in the morning because he couldn't bear to watch? If I woke up to a score near this I'd probably shat myself


That loser wound up making the right choice.

I do have to say the "business like approach" they've been saying they play with all year might need to be reevaluated. Go out and play emotional like the 2017-2019 teams did, and the Phillies currently do.

2024 could be another 2022 if this team plays with fire.

Tucker is 5 for 38 at the plate in the postseason with 1 RBI

may have to cut Biggio and Bagwell some slack for their struggles

I don't disagree, but who replaces him?


The Rangers are finding guys left and right that will outproduce him in just a year or two.

It's because Peña was supposed to be next but sucked all year
