    I’m sure the World Series win more than paid for the $5 mil fine. Losing a couple draft picks won’t matter either. The Astros organization got off easy. As they say, flags fly forever.

    Luhnow/Hinch got the worst of it being fired. Be surprised who hires them again. Depends on what team wants to win bad enough.

    But firing Luhnow/Hinch over this would have been like Kraft firing Belicheat...and that never happened.

    Lunhow took over the 106 loss Astros and built them into the juggernaut they are now.

    Major loss with Lunhow being out of the picture in Houston. He may be disliked in baseball but knows how to build a winner. After this season, another club will hire him. His teams won over 100 games the last 3 years

    Because the organization made far more $$$$$ by winning thru cheating than the $5 mil fine imposed. The organization came out ahead.

    Luhnow/Hinch didn’t get off easy. They lost their jobs while the Astros organization profits.

    So losing your manager and GM(who built this team)...losing 1st/2nd round picks for 2 years (don't tell me those don't matter, cause thats BS if you understand baseball)...being max fined is yeah i agree whatever, 5m is nothing


    Not quite a walk in the park

    MLB draft picks are far less valuable than any other sports picks. Look what the NBA did to the Timberwolves over Joe Smith. They lost 5 years worth of 1st round picks.

    5mil fine means nothing when the team made at least 5X that by winning the World Series.

    An appropriate penalty would have been a $50 mil fine, and a revoked World Series. Similar when the NCAA has teams take down banners. Then lose an entire year’s worth of picks.

    Rewatching some of these AJ Hinch pressers are comical really.. So arrogant and pompous. Guy should be banned for life along with that bum Cora..... Beltran should be forced to be a part of the Mets organization for the rest of his life.
