Heh...

it looks like a 24 year-old rookie pitcher for the Blue Jays is going to manage the Astros.

I don’t know much about Mills so I clicked on his name to go to his link, and to my surprise…

Good luck with that Houston.

And yet...

…you apparently cared enough to go into the comments, make a comment, and find an image to insert in your comment.

Didn't someone here predict

With utter certainty the Astros would not hire a minority manager to replace Cooper, and was lambasted for the prediction?

Yeah, I think so. Looks like I was right, not that there was any doubt.

Inn other news, multiple lousy seasons earned Ron Washington a lifetime contract in Texas…The Astros arent so stupid. They like winning.

I have a dream

where one day, managers are judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their won-lost records.
