yall think this is harsh? lmfao
this is a terribly weak penalty
every team in the league should be cheating now
exactly, and its picks in the back of the draft.. and MLB draft is a joke after the first couple picks
5M fine is like 1% of the payroll+profits
fired a coach and a GM who can be easily replaced wooo big loss lmao
it wasnt that long ago that the braves GM got banned for life for paying international 16 year olds who were eating rice cakes and beans for every meal
and the astros GM who got banned indefinitely (prob 1 year) for saying he was glad they got Osuna to female reporters.. who shouldnt be in the locker room anyways (something always weird to me)
someone made a good suggestion of taking away like half their home games (~40) and putting them in other cities or countries that don't normally get MLB games (San Antonio, Montreal, Indianapolis, etc.)
make the Astros pay for all the travel and expenses, concessions, etc. Promotes the game elsewhere and hurts Astros by taking home games away
oh i forgot the Braves didn't just get their GM banned for life, but they had to release 13 prospects, and lost international signing money for 4 years (until 2021).. so they got fucked over for years (lost players and signing ability)
for giving money to international broke players
wheres that thread where we can wish injuries on players/staff/commissioners without getting flamed
