Just want to say thank you for posting a photo w/him in something other than an Astros uniform.

Was Ian Kinsler not available?

11. u/Reasonable-Power · 2026-11-03 16:58 UTC

They were probably looking for Brandon Kintzler, but couldn't find him.

Ahhh yes. The team focusing on managerial experience is really playing out well. /s

My guess is Espada will be the bench coach to help with the experience part

15. u/Spiritual-Chameleon · 2026-11-03 17:23 UTC

Does he have nautical experience?

16. u/Terrible--T · 2026-11-03 17:49 UTC

The real question

17. u/dudeitseric · 2026-11-03 16:55 UTC

I’m sure this will work out well

18. u/Opbtty · 2026-11-03 16:58 UTC

Didn’t the Nats do this same thing last offseason and they sort of improved this year, right?

19. u/dudeitseric · 2026-11-03 17:09 UTC

The guy they hired at least had managed in the minors for a long time

20. u/Opbtty · 2026-11-03 17:41 UTC

Wasn’t he only like 33 years old?
