    Geez Correa settle down, I can only get so erect.

    He is going to town, and I love it.

    This. Correa has earned my mf respect! This is some grown man sh*t and going to war for his boy. Telling bellinger to shut tf up is badass man. Let’s go win the damn thing and I hope we mop the whole f’n league

    I think the right thing would have been for the players to lead the press conference. Jim Crane shouldn't have been talking. He did more damage to inflame the situation than anything. He's talking out of his ass and contradicting himself. If he knew nothing about it and is not a player, then why does what he says matter? The dude is a public relations nightmare.

    Agreed on Crane. He was terrible. But the Astros couldn’t have done anything right yesterday. The situation was going to be reopened and picked apart and subsequently destroyed no matter what they said. They went with the soft and gentle approach and got shredded so Carlos is coming back harder. Probably should have just come out with the guns yesterday.

    I hope Carlos Correa remains an Astro for life and stays completely healthy this season. I love the way he has handled things this week.

    Hope the attempts at grovelling and self-flagellation are over. These idiots won't be satisfied until the players are frogmarched out of Minute Maid and every trophy and banner is confiscated and given to Los Angeles and New York.

    **** 'em.

    A real one.

    I knew those Bellinger comments would spark some kind of response, thought it would have been Bregman.

    So for now, here’s the situation:

    Spearheaded the cheating, should be banned for life: Beltrán, Cora

    CHEATED, should be suspended: Bregman, Correa, Springer, Gurriel, Marwin, Marisnick

    DID NOT CHEAT, but should have spoken up: Luhnow, Hinch, Altuve, Reddick, Verlander, Morton, Keuchel, Fiers, all other veteran pitchers and coaches

    DID NOT CHEAT, gets a pass: Kemp

    Rookies who could not have significantly cheated, and who would have had their careers ruined for speaking up: Moran, White, Centeno, Davis, Fisher, Stassi, Reed, all non-veteran pitchers

    Guys I want to hear from: Aoki, Gattis, McCann, Maybin
