turnin' two

That's fantastic.

The Astros

Assuming that they'd be in a game 7 could be a reach. They still certainly could have won without cheating. But, you know, they didn't. We will never know the outcome of that series had it been played on level ground.

I think integrity is a thing, so.... No.

Yeah, sorry I was catching up. I guess from my perspective I thought it was good because it is more than I expected. Someone (Tom Pickle maybe? Threw you the like! ) that this is the best slap on the wrist possible. I guess that is probably about right.

I bet that is the defacto result. The Astros are going to hire a GM and Manager. They aren't going to not have guys in those positions for a year. I'd bet they just fire Hinch and Luhnow. And I bet no one hires them because they are radioactive. Maybe I have too much faith in people though.

It seems like a good penalty to me, what would you have done further?

Haven't you ever heard of Batman? Or Superman? He is obviously trying to protect those he loves from endless Sox fan hounding.

It would have looked a lot like the Mets rotation that hasn't done much the last couple of seasons.

Yeah. This. If this is the guy that is your weakest link, your lineup is pretty darn good.

Adios. Getting so worked up over the 8th hitter, who is a huge upgrade, will likely hit 20 HRs and 25 2Bs and still be somewhat productive is an effort in futility.

Don't forget that Brinson's best season was also in Colorado Springs.

This looks great. Also a reminder that the teams needs to keep adding talent to the lower levels.

Rizzo and <ahem> Starlin Castro. So to your point, yeah, this is the Sox wheelhouse.

The 20s will be roaring! Hmmm.... sorry.
