From the Athletic Rosenthal article:
Willing to bet good money this player is Carlos Beltran and his previous team that was sign stealing was St Louis

This is why I can't side with the argument that stripping the title WON'T be effective. Yes, these individuals make millions of dollars, but the legacy thing is real because they're all competitors. Players came out CLEAN in all of this, so it's not stopping because the risk/reward is worth it. Eternal shaming would be effective IMO, because unlike public opinion it'll be in the record books.

The millions of dollars this city and the Astros received by winning in 2017 is nothing to look past. Think it possibly should of been harsher. Now by firing Luhnow, they’ve sort of circumvented the one year suspension of their GM and can hire a new one that can work immediately.

It was stated way in the beginning Beltran and Cora spearheaded the whole thing.

Hinch called sign-stealing allegations a joke in October - ESPN Video
In October, AJ Hinch adamantly denied that the Astros had been pitch-stealing and called the accusations ridiculous.
this didn’t age well lol.

Im glad they were suspended and fired but I dont buy for one second that the owner didnt know about this and dude is saving face. Give me a break.
Teams always been trying to steal signs but using electronic aids and the other methods they were using was ridiculous. Get em the hell out of here

They should only be able to hire from within the organization for the duration of that suspension. Being able to hire a new gm from outside the organization, and ultimately him hiring a new manager defeats the purpose of the suspension. It should be general manager by committee and an interim manager for this year. They can hire permanent guys for those roles once the suspension ends.

of course there will always be ppl toeing the line
But these dudes habitually stepped and diddy bopped all over it
Road/home splits just prove they had to cheat to win
And to make matters worse, you got a coach who took this tactic to another club
MLB can’t have this happening

You told me that ever since you found out you were 1/8th's Dominican that you would take more interest in the culture. Baseball is HUGE in our culture.

Players should not be exempt from punishment. They characterized the schemes as "player-driven," but then don't punish the players.
