Saw that article yesterday, but didn't read it until now. Nice job Passan! Slimy billionaire Jim Crane ladies and gentlemen.

This owner is pretty bad at this apology thing, huh?

Yeah, that is what happens when you bumble through "apologies" and what you really mean is "F Off to everyone, we won!"

Man after the past few days I really really really hate the Astros.  What a bunch of douchebags.  I lost all respect for Jose Altuve.

I really wish those assholes played in Philly this year. They actually do have an interleague series with the Phillies just before the all-star break, but it's in Houston. 

One positive thing about this whole cheating scandal is that baseball has a real villain now. I know the Yankees are kind of everyone's de-facto villain, but that's mostly based on a century of success. No disrespect. But the Astros? Forget it. They're going to get harassed in every ballpark they go into, for years. And they deserve it. They can't be respected.

So The Redsox get a free pass on this?

I seriously think this was more league wide.  Some of the reporters that got tips about this never really did any homework.  It was some fans that did.

We need the fans to dig deeper considering the league and reporters don't seem to be doing much.  Sure Olney and a few have done pieces but it was what was already out there.

Yep. I never really liked Verlander (always been a cocky prick) but I respected his game. No respect for him now. Like dude, you bitched about people stealing signs years ago and now you've got nothing to say when it's your team.  Used to love Altuve. Fuck that guy. Used to love Correa. Fuck that guy. Bregman's always been a cocky little shit. Again, never liked him but repsected his game.  Can't wait for someone to clock his ass now.

The Red Sox investigation isn't completed yet.

How the hell the pitchers on the team allowed this to go on is what really blows my mind.  I thought there was some kind of code amongst those guys.

Do verlander and altuve have a chance to get in the hall after this cheating scandal?

MayDay10

They will both get in.

Beltran was on the fence but now he doesn't get in which I am fine with.

Well they might be finished with the actual investigation, but the findings aren't expected to be released until the end of the month...

Verlander yes. Altuve has to play a little bit longer to know with or without the scandal
