Jeff Bagwell

They're gonna fire their manager here coming up here shortly.

Uh, they have Jeff Bagwell running the ship.

They, th- they're an embarrassment, and they have $240 million in payroll.

The Rangers won a World Series three years ago.

He's the best.

I mean, with all due respect to Craig Biggio and Jeff Bagwell, in my opinion, he's the best player to ever put on an Astros uniform.

Yeah.

Let me tell you what I don't want.

I don't want Jeff Bagwell.

I don't want Brad Ausmus.

I don't want Craig Biggio.

The point is, is David Dombrowski goes, Mike who?

I think it's going to be...

I don't want to get too far off in a tangent about Jeff Bagwell before we know what's actually going to happen in the offseason, whether Jim Crane is going to be Jerry Jones or something else.

Your point about Hunter Brown ending the season, though, is a good one because...
