Chandler Rome is spicy and I love it

Rome, the new Athletic beat writer for the Astros and ex-Chronicle beat writer is really spicing things up in his criticisms of roster construction, lineup construction, and injury handling.

I think it’s good to be critical of the Astros missteps before and during the season. These things have to be publicized for fans to understand what’s taking place and how that’s affecting their team. Plus there’s the (small) possibility that the reporting makes some impact on decisions made by Dusty and the front office.

What do y’all think? What’s healthy and what’s over the line?

One nugget:

“Baker was adamant Abreu will return to the starting lineup on Friday and hit cleanup — continuing a curious decision rooted in almost no logic.” source
