    Dusty Baker is pretty smart

    While most of the Astros’ fandom is concerned about the outfield situation with George Springer, Michael Brantley and Josh Reddick all joining the free agent market, Manager Dusty Baker showed the kind of wisdom you expect from someone who has been around the majors for about 50 years as a player, coach and manager.
