Not just Dodger fans! Every team that faced the Astros all season it wasn't just a postseason thing. But i agree 100% complete disgrace i will boo everyone of them as well!
True. All teams were probably cheated. What a disgrace.
A.J. Hinchs voice and body language says it all
Wow! A dodgers fan and a Rockies fan agree on something!
I know MLB can't take away the trophy b/c of the ripple effect. But i think the Commissioner could if finding players guilty in participation they could implement a ruling that says "if they make it to the playoffs for the next 5 years it goes to the team in the division with next best record."
And take it a step further if any of those said players were to be traded whatever team they got traded too would not be able to utilize them in the playoffs for same said amount of time.
Which ultimately would lead to teams not being interested in trading for them meaning they were stuck not seeing any type of postseason for 5 years. That is what i would do or ban them indefinitely!
This is America's game and integrity of the game should not be overlooked!

Didnt dodgers have homefield advantage that series

Sigh...
I get it. Y’all have every right to say what y’all wanna say about my beloved Stros - and due to their actions & behavior, I will have to just sit here and take it. All the boos, signs, threats, increased “F*** Altuve!” chants, etc.
Sigh...so be it. It’s an extremely dark time for baseball and my Stros, but I will stand by them and simply hope they can earn some redemption for all this down the line, but how long that takes will remain to be seen...
But, I guess, just gotta deal with onslaught of insults & boos everywhere the Astros go...for the now, at least.Sigh...

The right approach.
Meanwhile, Bosox fans (at least here) love their "championship". Most fans/players would rather play hard and honest and lose than cheat and win -

Probably for a good 5 years. By then everyone will forget.

How do you think the Astros fan base will react to this? I’m a huge dodger fan, but I worry about throwing stones here. Because, you never know how widespread this kind of stuff was. The bummer is that those guys are so good that they might not have needed to cheat. Anyway, do you think it will cause diehards to check out for a while? If the Astros win 100 games this year will there still be the excitement that there was last year?
I think this will be the end of this version of the Astros. New manager and brass are going to just be different. Altuve or Bregman might be able to stay around long enough to be contenders again. But, I think it will take a while.
Or I’m wrong and they win 110 games and tell everyone outside of Houston to deal with it. I don’t think so though.

Lifelong giants fan here, and I genuinely feel bad for the Dodgers. They got Cora’d two World Series in a row. Its ridiculous that no players were disciplined over this. That’s the power of the union, I guess.

MLB gave immunity to the players to get them to tell the truth in the investigation. So it's really on Manfred.
Then the investigation reveals it was a "mainly player driven" scheme, but none of the players can be punished. SMH!

I think it’s awesome that opposing players aren’t keeping quiet about it. What Clevinger said in his little interview snippet was great. Hood justice
