Houston's hitters hadn't looked quite the same this year, the first since their sign-stealing scheme was unveiled. Altuve, Correa and others slumped during the regular season, and the team hit a combined .194 during a two-game sweep of Minnesota in the wild-card round.

‘'You can't judge this offense by 60 games,'' Correa said.

The Astros' swagger emerged at the same ballpark where they beat the Dodgers to win the 2017 World Series in seven games, helped by their sign-stealing scandal that rocked baseball and drew the ire of rival players and fans.

Yep. I think the thing that just befuddles everyone is why they didn’t do this all year.

As for the media, they’re so mad that a) no players got punished b) that the title wasn’t stripped, and c) they didn’t have to deal with the wrath of opposing fans.

They’re having a tantrum and I love it.
