Latest report reveals Dusty Baker's bizarre reason for benching one of Astros best players

SOMEONE IS LYING

Over the course of the Astros season, a lot has been made of Dusty Baker's curious lineup decisions. Especially, when it comes to Astros outfielder, Chas McCormick.

After the Astros swept the Rangers this week, The Athletic published an article written by Chandler Rome about Baker's alleged reasons for not playing Chas regularly. The piece indicates McCormick's weight might have something to do with it, and his irregular playing time is an issue for some within the organization.

Could this really be the reason?

Be sure to watch the video above as the guys share their thoughts on the alleged rift between Baker and McCormick.
