Dubon is fine, just bat him 8th or 9th and not 2nd for christs sake. That’s all.

Wouldn't that depend on what player he's filling in for in the field?

How many times did dubon bat 2nd in the playoffs ?

Yeah. That’s overblown. He batted 2nd in 7 games (19 ABs) and actually did pretty well when doing so. .264/.304/.579

The more I looked at Yainer Diaz career lines I like the idea of letting him get the shot at first and DH.   Sign Yuli cheap and let the kid swing it.   He doesn't strike out often walks enough and shown enough power the last two years. 

Fuck no to Yuli. You can sign a real MLB player and still give Diaz developmental ABs.

Those are 2 of Dusty’s favorites and his influence without a real GM has never been higher. So prepare for disappointment. 

I’m aware. I was  talking about what should, not what will.

GDI it appears Bellinger is no longer going to be a Doyer. That was the perfect marriage.

Well if it isn't the Astros biggest pessimist supporter around

ALT2 pay homage to the rainbows but stops too short and will be one of those uniforms that people laugh at in 10-20 years. Just bring back the most glorious uni’s in baseball history as ALT2 for Sundays and to get a couple playoff games.

The two-tone caps are the one misstep since ending the Drayton mud and brick abomination.  We should wear solid blue and solid orange and that's it.

They basically don't wear any two-tone caps anymore. They haven't worn the alternate caps in a long time, and they pretty much wear solid blue on the road now too.

I wish they would bring back orange caps though.

I always thought the solid orange caps they wore at home for Saturdays and weekday day games (up through maybe 2015?) were a great look. It picks up the orange piping in the home uniform, and by the same token, the solid blue cap always made more sense for the road uniform with its blue piping. I'd like to see them bring back that orange to wear at home at least some of the time and with the Sunday alternate.

Erroneous, erroneous on all counts.  The Alt 2 is our best current uniform and a perfect homage.

I ordered 3 caps and on tshirt, got everything today 

I bought a ton of shit planning to take half of it back. One of the white WS Champs t-shirts was printed with the words at least 30 degrees off horizontal, and not by design. I bought all three color combos of the 59fifty hat in the same size, and it was like the Goldilocks of sizing.

From an online order of merch day after the win....only 1 item arrived. That poster. It's sweet. They included a link to a photo to use for phone wallpaper. Sharing both sizes with you all.
 

Damn it still feels good to be a champ.
