    It's funny, at first i thought taking the title away was extreme, but after the constant lies and cover ups, there is no other option than to strip them of the title. If you strip them, they they can have a redemption storyline if they ever win again, if they keep it, no one will ever respect any other title they win.

      And Ortiz? Are the reds ox giving back rings? And Canseco/McGwire? A's aren't giving rings back, and on and on and on... Just to be clear, I'm not agreeing with you that the Astros should get to keep their ring because there was other cheating g that occurred. I'm pointing g out that EVERY team in the league had guys on PEDs. So one team having some didn't give them an unfair advantage. Having a camera in the outfield to steal signs and then relaying them to the clubhouse and then banging on a trash can to signal what pitch was coming obviously gives the Astros an unfair advantage and one that their opponents had no recourse to counter it.
      Its apples and oranges.

      Except you wouldn't hit that high. Just because you have an idea or know what is coming doesnt mean you can hit it. Yes, you have an advantage but in the end you dont know placement or where the ball will land and you still have to swing and make contact. And even with that just making contact guarantees nothing. I dont know why people cant see this or understand this. Yes, the Astros were wrong for breaking the rules yet there is not enough evidence to prove that is what got them the title. They lost in 2018 while still utilizing it. Yet here we are all talking about this like every time they knew they got on base or hit a homerun.

      There was no document for the investigation, at least ones that grant immunity for cooperation, that's what they're getting at. MLBPA wouldn't allow the league to even speak to the guys if there would be any punishment handed out to active players. There would have had to have been a clause in the current CBA stating that players must truthfully cooperate in investigations in order for there to have have been any kind of breech they could go after a lying player for.
      I would hope the next CBA has language in it that would allow for punishment in these kinds of cases going forward, but it looks like there will be absolutely nothing done to these players, even if the buzzers are proven for 2019, as it could be taken to court if they go after these guys. At least that's what I'm piecing together from everything that has come out today.

      This is a very good question. My guess is yes because that's what happened to A-Rod with his steroid scandal in 2013. A-Rod received a much bigger ban than everyone else in the Biogenesis scandal because he was, in the words of the Commissioner's office, "attempting to cover-up his violations of the Program by engaging in a course of conduct intended to obstruct and frustrate the Office of the Commissioner's investigation." So in other words, A-Rod was being uncooperative and maybe even untruthful during the investigation. If it was found that any of the Astros players were lying during the investigation, I'm sure that that would give Manfred the leeway to start suspending players. But that would mean that second investigation would have to occur.

    Yes, take the Astros title away, but while you’re at it, take away the Red Sox 2018 title, and the Dodgers 2017 and 2018 NL Pennants away as well, all three used The Baserunner Method, a form of Electronic Sign Stealing. The Yankees used this as well, but didn’t win anything, so you can’t take anything away from them.

      He's saying to take electronics out of the game. You misunderstood. He said naturally picking up the signs on the regular TV feed then getting a man on second that's able to see the sign and knows what look for then can rely it to the batter quick enough.

      The camera the Houston Astros set up is 100% against the rules (hence why they took it down after every game) then they were relying to the batter with a noise rather than the traditional method of having a man on second. There's a still a human element there rather than using a computer algorithm, illegal camera, and drumming.

Any player could’ve been using steroids and it wouldn’t help them specifically at home or on the road. What the Astros did was specific to them.

    I was watching ESPN yesterday morning and Stephen A. Smith gave the PERFECT answer to what the Players should do this upcoming Season to the Astros players. He said Pitchers shouldn't throw at them and nobody should slid dirty into 2nd base or collide with the Catcher. Manfred already said whoever does something like that will be pushed without warning. So instead of throwing at them and stuff like that, every team should come to the ballpark and not even acknowledge them. Don't shake their hands or chat with them before the game like players always do. Do converse with them whenever one of them gets on base, the Manager hands the lineup card to the Umpire from his Dugout because he doesn't want to shake hands with anyone on the Astros, and the players should all turn their back when it's time for the National Anthem. No one said players need to lineup along the 1st and 3rd base lines. Let the Astros line up for the National Anthem and then the other team lines up so they're facing the american Flag, but their backs are completely towards the Astros. Just don't even acknowledge them. They're not worth the time. THAT's how you treat the Astros this year without constantly getting ejected, fined and suspended from Regular Season games...
