    Astros cheated. Leaker also shouldn’t get off the hook because he waited until after the winning to roll on his teammates.

    This right here.

    Pete Rose is an arrogant asshole who lied about the betting for years before admitting it. Had he admitted, he’d prob been banned for a 1-5 years and now be in the HOF. Bonds, McGuire, Alex just got caught. Steroids have been in MLB for years. Don’t vacate Astros’ title. That’s stupid. No post season for 2 years. The punishment has to be so strong people will definitely not even consider doing it again. They got fined 5M I think. Teams pay DH’s or pitchers with over 3.5 ERAs more than 5M a year. The fine is a joke. Take away the whole reason they’re playing, no postseason. The MLB commissioner is a complete fucking idiot.

    If the commissioner had a set, he would:

    Strip the Astros of the title.

    Fine every player, coach, manager, employee any bonus that they received for post season play.

    Ban every player, coach, manager, exec who was a member of the 2017 Astros for on year without pay. If you are on another team...too bad. They can fill your roster spot with minor leaguers.

    The 2020 Astros can either field a team with what’s left, trade or sit it out. Don’t care.

    Agreed. Bonds was elite before his first juicing season (1999). And after juicing, he was other worldly. His OBP and intentional walk percentage in the post season has to be near the top.
