    It’s gonna be just like those roided up players. No one takes their numbers seriously and the same will be for this championship. This basically makes our entire franchise a huge joke again.

    He's the manager. He was aware. He basically had to be suspended.

    Luhnow is the more questionable suspension because the suspension was essentially because people don't like him (in many cases probably deservedly so).

    Only because stripping anyone of the ring is a huge pain in the ass for the league itself.

    Yep and player suspensions. We draft well enough that the picks won't hurt too bad.

    Bonds is still the home run leader but isn’t in the hall of fame. Same **** different stink.

    The Cora investigation is still ongoing. They seem to be setting him up as the main instigator of all of this. I'd be shocked if his punishment is not more severe than Hinch.

    That one said it continued throughout the postseason. If so then the penalties are justified.

    Agreed and the draft picks hurt the most...I haven't read all of the notes, but does this mean it only happened at home? If so, our road record was 53-28 that year...All I'm saying it tells only part of the story...

    Anyway, winning a world series is still an amazing accomplishment and we nearly had one last year. It's both pitching and hitting that win it...

    The only way to show it's still legit is to win it all this year...We still have the core group of guys and pitching that can do it...I'm all in!!! #GoAstros
