For all of Dusty's fault, I really liked the guy and I think there's a place for him in MLB. I hate that he's going to the Astros so I'm a bit bummed because I want to see him win a WS.

Dusty is going to be shocked to find out that Altuve, and not Correa, is batting second.
That's just not gonna fly. Shortstops bat second.

Very glad for him, he deserves it and he's a really good fit for the Astros.

I couldn't imagine a better guy to rep the Astros in 2020. Dusty is the face of old school and deserves another chance at a ring.

It’s the right hire if for no other reason to bring in a guy who is respected and trusted with all the shenanigans that have come to light.

Perfect punishment for them.

When Dusty was managing the Reds, the game was passing him by. Now? The game has passed him by.
Shortstops don't always bat 2nd.
Data actually matters more than gut feelings.
Starting pitchers can't throw 120 pitches every 5 days.
And white people don't get gassed in the summer heat more than other ethnicities.
The Astros just made a huge mistake, and I'm glad. They deserve every bit that Dusty brings to the table in 2020. Toothpicks and all.

It is on the whole probable that we continually dream, but that consciousness makes such a noise that we do not hear it. Carl Jung.
Very happy to see him get one more chance at a ring.
