2020 Official Astros - Off Season thread
Facts
A.) Astros cheated in 2017 using technology to steal signs and were punished due to the internal memo sent that year warning them to stop
B.) other major league teams were using technology as well to steal signs
C.) Astros quit using code breaker and signs early in 2018 stating they were not working
D.) PhD and baseball writer for prospectus Uses Adams data to conclude zero net gain during the sign stealing.
E.) zero evidence of any buzzers being used. Ever. None.
F) MLB had 12 executive complaints against Astros but did not move for any type of investigation due to the rampant use of it league wide, until Fiers squealed
G.) players were granted immunity to insure this was the only domino to fall.
H.) first and second round picks were vacated but not international money to allow Astros a loop hole.
I.) Yankees twitter account creates fake story about buzzers and holier than though fans run with it.
J.) 2019 MLB had video monitor officials in every dugout and stadium league wide. 2019 was clean and they were 6 outs away from winning another
K.) Rangers still have not won a worlds series. Asterisk or not

The Rangers and Astros have been very similar throughout history. Both have had a recent run of playoff success and World Series appearances. The Rangers were a pit h away from a championship. The Astros happened to win one but it is tainted now.
Y'all act like you are the Yankees or Cardinals. Lol.

I didn't realize this until I just sat down and did the math.
For 2017 (Regular Season & Postseason Combined)
Record At Home: 56 Wins / 34 Losses
Record On The Road: 56 Wins / 34 Losses
So all this "scandal", news stories, asterisks, "strip them of the title", etc., over a team that literally had the exact same amount of wins & losses when they didn't cheat, compared to when they did cheat. That's freaking funny...

For all those yankee fans who live in glass houses!
Former Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano was suspended 80 games by Major League Baseball on Tuesday, May 15, 2018 (5/15/18) for the use of performance enhancing drugs. Cano, currently with the Seattle Mariners, joins a long list of former Yankees who have had trouble with PEDs and drugs, including Alex Rodriguez, Roger Clemens, Jason Giambi, Darryl Strawberry and Dwight Gooden.

In their defense I would probably be desperately trying to come up with any angle to defend them so my team is not a trivia row subject on Jeopardy for the rest of my life... nor a negative 30 for 30.

Would an apology help?? We are sincerely sorry, from all the fans of the Houston Astros on this site. We are sorry that your moral compass effects you so much that daily you must post about our lack of empathy and contrition.
We are sorry!!!!!!
