My favorite of the Tartan Army was seeing that Groundskeeper Willie from The Simpsons was vindicated. Bc there actually was a Skotchtoberfest tailgate yesterday.
Sugar Land’s game tonight against Sacramento was cancelled because of rain. Cristian Javier was scheduled to start the game and Yainer Diaz scheduled to catch nine innings.
@DANMATHEWSHOU@ChrisGordy Lame duck GM & Manager changes needed to be made last off season. Espada not going anywhere. Hope a full healthy squad can make a run. We need another bat im hoping Mathews becomes everyday LF 🙏
A caller to @ChrisGordy just asked about Joe taking a demotion to bench coach & Omar Lopez becoming manager. Hey bucko… Would you take a demotion with less pay to work behind someone else? No? Exactly.

This is a collaborative effort. This isn’t like Joe says it, so it goes.
That said… You just had an off-day on Thursday & will have another one this Thursday.
You need to win ballgames. At least give yourself a chance to do it.
I don't think Joe is the best manager, but I do think people put way too much blame on him
He can't do anything right in their mind.
If he plays them every day, and someone gets hurt, then it's his fault for running his players into the ground. If he plays them often, with off days here and there, he is a bad manager for not letting his guys play
The last couple of seasons, the Astros have told us that they would like to give their older guys more days off. It makes too much sense to do that. That's the only way you give them healthy.
Off days are just a part of this sport and we have to deal with it
#Astros get shut out for the 6th time this season, drop series finale to Royals, 4-0. Astros lose for just the 2nd time in Arrighetti's 11 starts. Arrighetti: 6 IP, 8 H, 4 R, BB, 7 K. Houston went 3-3 on road trip at Angels & Royals. Series vs Tigers in Houston begins tomorrow. Hunter Brown vs Framber Valdez on Tuesday.
