Dusty should have taken some advice from his buddy TLR. Dusty's infatuation with Maldonado is also just weird. Guy can't hit, can't frame, isn't good at anything anymore. Maybe he calls a better game than Diaz, but when you're down 6, you need offense. Not a guy who hits .160. The Astros lose a couple of replaceable bullpen guys this offseason, and some guys like Abreu get older. But, they should be back next year…they have Verlander the whole year, they should get McCullers back although he’s probably a part season guy at best, France and Brown now have near full season experience, and if you add in a manager who is more willing to take advantage of what the front office gives him, this team could definitely win 100 next year.

They let Jeff Bagwell and the owner play GM last year despite the owner not being a baseball expert and Bagwell totally not deserving the GM job except for having once played for the team so the owner their he could do it, and wound up with a weaker roster and a couple contracts that look bad. This is totally not relevant for any other franchise. But anyway; they have an actual and deserving GM this year with a roster that already looks loaded. There is always work to do, but you have to think they’re in a good spot. They have 7 starters possibly! I’m not sure the white Sox have 2.
