I get the frustration about being hit multiple times and being mad, but as a professional you have to control your emotions.
As a professional? The Astros were banging on trash cans to cheat their way to a title like they were the villains in a made for TV coming of age sports movie.
I understand the point you're trying to make about keeping your cool, but calling out another team for being unprofessional after what the Astros got caught doing is absurd.
Astros were dead wrong for cheating, but throwing at batters heads (Kelly) and rushing the dugout (Ramon) are wrong as well.
check the link i sent, if you can click on one. And, were the astros not throwing at ramon's head? thats part of why everything happened.

Sigh... Yup.
Friggin’ A’s!
Hope the Stros turn it around...
#Stros4Lyfe #ForTheHfriggin A's? How about the Astros proving to everyone for id say the 3rd or 4th time this past year that they are a gross organization. I'd be so embarrassed to root for that team.
Based on your previous comments you would know about being an embarrassment.
How? Look at yourself bro...defending any of this is ridiculous.
Not defending it little man, read my post. Only time you ever post on these boards is to dog the Astros, when your Red Sox did the same thing.
little man, really lol And every post of mine is not dogging the astros, and if it was, am I really disgusting for pointing out the organization's flaws?

Do you consider the Astros the past few years a professional organization?

Do you consider the Astros a professional organization given the past few years?

I wonder how much of this season's mess is due to how the rest of the league feels about how Manfred handled the Astros cheating scandal?

OK little man, I give you the first HBP, the second was a 78 MPH curveball. I coached little league kids that threw that hard.

@byrdman-10 You see this?
So did you not play sports growing up? I got under the skin of many I played to see what they were made of, if my actions bothered them winning was even easier.

The punishment is simple. dissolve both teams, and put every good player on the Phillies
That was funny...

If they were the only ones doing it, no. Red Sox did it, Yankees did it and got swept under the rug and who know who else. Sign stealing, steroids, PED's are all forms of cheating. Cheating has been around baseball since it begin, it's not right but being naive that the Astros are so bad and the only ones is totally off base.

I did. I just wasn't dumb enough to be rude to someone about their mom. Or anyone. This game is meant to be fun. I don't blame Laureano one bit. The coach was being rude. He was hit 3 TIMES! He had a right to be mad. Notice that he wasn't going to come after him until the coach egged him on. Shameful, like the rest of the Astros. Oh, also, this is kinda funny. https://twitter.com/FloBos_Theory/status/1292592224216260608

Those guys are playing to win and get paid, and if you can't handle some trash talk maybe you should be in another profession.

In case you didn't know, baseball isn't my profession. It would be nice though.....

Not to mention that the Astros in the dugout are wrong for EGGING Laureano on in the very first place. Laureano didn't want to fight, but the Astros egged him on and made derogatory marks about his family. And Laureano is well within his right to be furious about that.
The Astros got a slap on the wrist—Shoeless Joe is probably rolling in his grave.
