done their time? they had zero repercussions other than firing their coach
The GM was also fired, and they lost the top 2 draft picks in 2020 and 2021.

They're everywhere for sure, especially the ones that get hoodwinked by MLB so easily.

I don’t know why people still don’t get that the reason the Astros were “let off easy” is because the majority of teams were doing the same shite around that time including the darling Red Sox and Yankees. No way MLB was going to blow the whole thing up so the Astros got crucified by the media, fired their coach and GM, and lost 2 1st rounders. 4 players remain from that 2017 roster and 2 are pitchers. It’s time to let it go

Careful. You're being logical about this whole thing, and there are a few people in this thread who aren't capable of handling logic. You've probably blown their minds.

"Everyone was doing it" is not a good defense

We’ve been over this before. They did nothing that the rest of the league, including the next year’s WS winners, weren’t already doing. The Commissioner could smack them with the big sentence and watch as they burned the entire league down, or hit them with a lesser sentence and fix this internally.

Also, the reason nothing happened to the players is that they were offered immunity in exchange for them spilling the beans on the whole thing.
If the players weren’t offered immunity, they wouldn’t have said anything and who knows if anything would have come of it.
So the whole reason we know everything we do is specifically because the players were given immunity.

I didn’t justify the Astros doing anything. I simply explained the reason why MLB didn’t suspend/ban all the players… because other players/teams were doing the same thing
Posted on 5/15/24 at 8:58 am to BamaSaint
Nobody is defending the Astros, we are explaining why they didn’t get a harsher penalty

Exactly. If there had been no immunity it just would have been the story of a disgruntled rat and completely unconfirmed. Just a rumor.

A thousand times. Those still crying will never stop crying. As if Blanco is the first pitcher to ever get caught using a foreign substance.
For the Yankees fans who are above all this, here’s ya boy Piñeda with pine tar on his fricking neck.

New York got shut down by Blanco last week and probably cried to MLB and the Athletics about it. Salty tears from the Yankees because they couldn't complete the regular season sweep.
