So my questions if these suspensions hold up....

Who handles trades?

Who handles Springer's contract extension?

Who manages the team?

When is it effective?

Do you we expect some signing and a Springer extension here in the immediate future?

Mission accomplished for all the Yankee/Red Sox/Dodger fans in sports media who couldn't stand that another team not in the big three had the audacity to be successful.

There goes a chance at another WS ring most likely along with reinforcements to keep things going.

a little surprised by the draft picks, but not the suspensions. although I know on good authority that in 2017 when AJ found out about this he took a baseball bat to the tv monitor...twice (because beltran and cora started back up again).

also I heard that Crane has a ton of dirt on Manfred...I guess he chose not to use it.

Cora May go down even harder. He did this with two teams.

Why do you think Crane brought his son in several months ago?

(just kidding... but you never know...)

Alex Cora is next.

Fired Tanenbaum suspended a year as well.

Well, another nut-kick for the Houston sports fan.

Houston sports owners freakin owe Houston for the amount of crap they have dumped on the city the last few months.

Steriods? Yeah, whatever.
Drugs before that? Meh.
Using technology that wasn't technically out lawed until after and which many teams used? Burn a franchise to the ground.

Mike fiers is going to get his team killed.

So what was legal and not legal in 2017? Kind of like using PEDs before they were outlawed?

That turned out worse than expected. Wonder if they can appeal those decisions down to something reasonable.

If the Yankees did this, it would be a 3 game suspension for the manager, loss of the last two rounds of picks in the draft, and a $100,000 fine.

This sucks because in the end it is us the fans that get the punishment. The Astros will fall back to being the typical mediocre Houston team that never does anything.

lol you overestimate Hinch's role in our success.

They didn't suspend any talent or our analytics

This won't cause the team or franchise to be mediocre.

I don't get the Hinch suspension other than a big **** you to the Astros. Apparently the report makes it clear he wasn't involved and attempted to stop it.

Honestly **** the league for this bull**** over the top decision. No way the Yankees, Red Sox or Dodgers get this sort of punishment in the same scenario.
