Why the hell didn't we start Urquidy…
CJ was still the go-to, but Urquidy should've been warming up just in case early on in a game 7


You're right. Should have rode Brown longer than used Urquidy
this. JP France had zero business coming into this game when he did. Again. Dusty dusty'd us.


Coming in is OK. He should have been out after 3 batters when he didn't have it.

Donkey proved why he got fired from all the big clubs and he proved why he could never win a game 7. Oh and he proved that we won IN SPITE of him last year.

At least we know after this abortion of a game he's GONE!!!

I think they also are just out of gas. The World Baseball Classic right after winning a WS meant very little offseason for a lot of our guys.


But they didn't fall off after the games mounted up. It's been the same all season.

Two sad little runs against this Rangers pitching staff. At home. Pitching blew this game, but the bats did no favors.

We have him for 2 more seasons before free agency.

Then if you're gonna trade him I think you do it now. If you wait until he's a rental the return won't be worth it. Don't think it would happen though


Ok, now this is crazy talk. I was just talking about investing $300 million or more.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

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.


I think the injuries early took a toll on the team. I think that led to all the inconsistency with lineups etc. It took a long time to hit a groove and get everyone back, and it all barely came together at the end, just didn't have enough run in them to get it all the way done. Sucks getting blown out at home.

I'm trying to have the perspective that it's an awesome thing to be a fan of a team that is "in it or win it" year in and year out. It's been a fun run, and I hope we have a few more fun years.


I think all the lineups definitely played a part. None of the second string guys got any decent playing time. In, out, up, down… that really ****ed with a few of them near the end.

But Abreu was pretty awful all year, Peña never really lived up to expectations, Tucker hasn't been right for awhile and they all had very consistent playing time. I really think the clubhouse devolved all year into Dusty goo. It doesn't help that making the playoffs every year means our guys are wiped out. I think the short Winters definitely has played a role in the slow starts.

So is Espada the #1 choice for coach next year?

It wasn't a comment on the batters eye. It's a comment in it's pathetic that they have only scored two runs against this pitching staff.

I can see Valdez, Javier, Bregman, and Maldonado being worn out. The rest of them had plenty of time off because of injuries or Dusty.

Offseason moves?

- Fire Dusty, Do not Resign Maldy

- Try and Re-sign Neris

- Get rid of Montero and eat a huge part of his contract

- I would say try and find a Short Stop because I have doubts Pena is going to turn it around, but the FA market doesn't look so hot.

Not sure we have to do much. Just playing Diaz alone at catcher is a huge upgrade. Not having a mentally handicapped manager would be another huge upgrade. Getting Garcia/LMJ will be a nice upgrade somewhere, even if they round out our bullpen.

Weak excuse. The other team(s) seem to be handling it alright…

Tucker hasn't truly been right since he got sick in late August or early September and missed several games. He was hot before that and mediocre ever since.

My comment is more related to the personality of the team. I don't disagree with many of the personnel moves; letting Springer and Correa go, even trading Kemp; but it altered the personality in the clubhouse that was either overlooked or most likely over thought. There are a bunch of good players on this team but much of the same quiet and reserved personalities. We thought a business like approach would work, I question that.

Abreu had one hot week during the regular season and one hot week in the playoffs. Woof.

Off season move #1. Clone Yordan Alvarez.
