January 13, 20205 yr Significant but I feel like it should include loss of picks or international signings too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

January 13, 20205 yr You serious, Clark?I just don’t really give a shit about a GM being suspended. Manager and loss of ability to draft or sign would be better.
January 13, 20205 yr my Astros friends are happy Hinch will be suspended. they'll take the title in exchange for that.
January 13, 20205 yr Did you read anything? Hinch out for a year too, next two years of 1st & 2nd-round picks gone.
January 13, 20205 yr I just don’t really give a shit about a GM being suspended. Manager and loss of ability to draft or sign would be better. Uhh, read the tweets. Hinch is also suspended and they lose first and second rd picks this year and next.

January 13, 20205 yr I mean any team would trade a championship for a few measly suspensions and draft picks. I know I would. Same as the NFL with the Patriots. They will give them a slap on the wrist but no league has the balls to go any further than that.
January 13, 20205 yr Uhh, read the tweets. Hinch is also suspended and they lose first and second rd picks this year and next. Y’all are supposed to post the tweet here for me to read. Which I now see after my original post.
January 13, 20205 yr That's harsher than I thought they would get. Do the Astros just have to go without a manager and GM for a year with subordinates filling in or can they hire a one year replacement to fill in until Hinch and Luhnow can come back?
January 13, 20205 yr They’ll use bench coach & assistant GM. And it’s not technically year-long suspensions, from today until day after WS.

They lose 4 pics, but I thought it was still fairly light. International signings are more valuable than draft picks. Edited January 13, 20205 yr by Beau Vine

I'm sure they will have an interim. But fuck them, Hinch knew what they were doing. Their title should be stripped

January 13, 20205 yr the 'cheating had such a profound impact that the Astros were significantly better on the road in 2017. and went 2-2 at dodger Stadium in the WS. Astros in 6 in 2020. Fuck the crybaby motherfuckers in MLB. Take it out on the opponents. Edited January 13, 20205 yr by Iceman

January 13, 20205 yr This is fun too. Quote In addition, Brandon Taubman, who was in the center of the Roberto Osuna/harassing reports drama after the ALCS, has been placed on the league’s ineligible list, meaning he’s effectively banned from baseball.
January 13, 20205 yr "Luhnow admantly denies knowledge of [the schemes]" Yeah, no one believes that, Jeffery-boy. And the Red Sox had better be looking for a new manager, because I'll bet Cora gets more than a year.

Does he have a lawsuit here, or is this one of the things the anti-trust exemption lets MLB get away with?

January 13, 20205 yr And actually, Taubman also got only a season suspension, but he has to apply for reinstatement for some reason.

January 13, 20205 yr Just now, immortal13 said: Because he was actively involved in the scheme. Doesn't really hold water to me because Hinch knew and is therefore just as guilty Exactly. No way Hinch did not know about that sort of thing. And if he really didn't (he did), that makes it look just at worse. Meaning he has no control at all of his team.

January 13, 20205 yr 5 minutes ago, Vic Mackey said: I haven't kept up much with their little scandal. Why is he going to get a much bigger punishment than Hinch? Cora and Beltran were the ringleaders of this scheme. AND he did it with 2 different teams. He could get a lifer ban potentially.
