Find me another example of players banging on trash cans. I dare you to.

The trash cans were a poverty system of sign reading. The Red Sox employed apple watch smart technology to steal signs, Yankees used sophisticated iPad.
Astros learned from the rich franchises.
Thanks hall of famer and former Yankee Carlos Beltran, and long time Atlanta Brave Brian McCann.
Thanks for teaching a poverty franchise how the league truly operates. No wonder the Astros were so far behind before they came over and leveled the playing field.

Even Bob fricking Costas put that shite to bed. Again, their success isn’t an anomaly.

True, and has been part of the game for over a century. But everyone knows that if you get caught you get punished. MLB must punish players and teams for cheating and must investigate allegations of cheating. Does Pete Rose deserver a lifetime ban? Some say no, but everyone in baseball from the Rookie Leagues to MLB knows that gambling on baseball results in a lifetime ban. Same with players cheating. Get caught pay the price.

The mental gymnastics by astros fans to legitimize cheating knows no bounds lol

If we put that to a vote I wonder what the results would be

I don't know why there is some type of statute of limitation on this championship. If the Commish knows he was wrong in his judgment then make it right.
Take the trophy and whatever personal awards were handed out, including rings, and make them vacate. They didn't deserve it and in that, they won't give it to the team that really did, just vacate it.

Only reason ESPN brought it up is because the Astros are in LA this week and guess what the Sunday Night game is that they're broadcasting...

Not good enough. Lifetime bans and relegate the franchise to the Mexican League.
They wouldn’t even have to leave Houston.

But it's just a "piece of metal."
Then the same a-hole overreacted and stole the all star game from us.

Does he regret fully protecting the Yankees and Red Sox for doing the exact same thing?

No, thank you St.Louis for Owner, who's love of baseball came from being a 314'r and his love for cardinal baseball.
Thank you St.Louis for GM, who built it all for extended success
Thank You st.Louis for all of the former St.Louis scouts and peeps who came with former GM
Still, you had to run to AL to win pennants and WS.

Getting your head handed to you by a bunch of 5 stars is no reason to start name-calling. Take your medicine. There's more where that came from.

The Astros cheated fair and square.
Their alleged 2017 World Series title* will forever be tainted.
It's time for us as a baseball community to join together and move forward for the betterment of the game we love.

Manfred talks too much. He's nothing like what I'd choose for a MLB commissioner.
