How did Bohs kill the Astros? The team he originally got was an aging financial mess. He fixed that shit a lot quicker than I expected him to. He's got a long rebuild now and yeah he's made some bad trades that could have turned out for better for him, but he's moving in the right direction and doing what he has to do. they arent technically dead shale. but they are in worse shape now than when he took over. he traded for a lot of older guys just so he could win 63 this year or it would have been real bad.. I traded nothing for a few pieces to fill gaps until I can draft younger players, there is no argument that the team is worse than when I got it. That's a fucking rebuild genius, but of course you wouldn't know anything about that. |
