No.  That will not be happening worry not. 

[Slacks 6821]

My truck was stolen while I was watching the Astros load last night. 

Thanks, Dusty.

Can the training staff work with Maldonado the same way they are working with Altuve and Alvarez?

[YChang 3444]

So... er team gonna try to play some competitive ball tonight?

Deal was signed the day click got let go or the day after. Have no idea if he was involved in any negotiations (he was at winter meetings so probably?) or put on ice while the deal was being negotiated. 

click was offered a one year deal, he decided to walk

Kory Lee down with an injury. Could be a huge impact on impending trades

Oblique. Go figure

3rd inning (maybe 2nd) brawl confirmed 

[Scraps 13561]

Something is wrong....Diaz, Julks and Chas all get to play again??

He’s getting beaned tonight 

He should have been sat down

And I am #TeamChas but that is some shit that needs to be addressed. This ain't not running out a fly ball or something.

He just needs to make sure Yordy is the first one out of the dugout 

[Dutchrudder 11139]

I'm kind of surprised the MLB doesn't hand down a 1 game suspension for that. Interfering with a play like that should get you ejected from the game at the very least. 

[HtownHorn 14681]

After seeing the Chas play, yeah that shit was complete bush league. Maybe that speaks to the maturity issues that have been rumored.

Just what Dusty needs... more anti-Chas ammo.

[Scraps 13561]

I mean probably reading into this too much, but to follow up on the maturity/anger issues....I watched a segment I saw yesterday online of them asking players who gets the most Hangry and Chas won out.....Meyers literally sounded terrified of Chas " he can get very hangry!" or something along those lines.  

 

Edit - here it is lol

Both teams were completely done with BP last night by 5:10

Zero player interaction before the game.  Hundreds of kids up and down the lines there by 5:45.

Place was packed last night.  Good crowd.

[Gut Wagon 8069]

If Dusty had managed the Orioles, Cal Jr.'s ironman streak would have ended at eight.

Yes. Whenever the players are asked anything where the subtext is who is the biggest dipshit on the team Chas is the answer. I’ve also heard a few inside the locker room stories that confirm said information.  It’s not a bad guy thing it’s exactly what I said- dipshit thing. That runs some guys the wrong way. I’m sure Dusty is one of them that’s rubbed the wrong way.

Good, his OBP will tick up and our odds of scoring increases. That means the net effect of his play is positive (I think).

And the team is still better when he plays. Nothing else should matter because he’s not a bad guy, just a weirdo, and the team is not adversely affected by his inclusion in the lineup in any way (quite the opposite). 

[Rip76 4928]

I’ll just say if f’ing Siri got to play for Houston we can work this Chas thing out.

That was stupid as hell thought.

[Harrison Stafford 3335]

Someone not named Madris needs to ph for Maldy tonight 

[Huckleberry 32859]

Need a Tucker bomb in these seats.

Well this certainly would explain the rumored Yankee interest in him 

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

This is less play by play and more like watching the Mannings watch Monday Night Football.

[Scraps 13561]

Brown needs some immaculate innings or he is barely going to go 5 innings

[runthebone 7982]

Good job advancing the runner, Maldonado. You turd.

[tx 3 putt 76956]

2 outs why wasn’t chas all out ???

[Scraps 13561]
