    Update: MLB has suspended the Asterisk's hitting coach for 20 games. They also suspended Laureano for 6 games, but Laureano is appealing his suspension.

    I hope they grant his appeal.

    Indeed. Coaches are supposed to set the example, not make derogatory remarks about someone’s mother.

    Just love how people are so two faced on these message boards. So let's look at the St. Louis Cardinals.

    Found guilty and punished for hacking into the Astros scouting database.
    Had one of the biggest cheaters that ever played the game, you guessed it Mr. Steroid Mark McGuire.
    It was suspected that Tony LaRussa, ex Cardinal manager, was one of the early pioneers of sign stealing back in the 80's.

    And yet you criticize other teams for cheating, maybe you should look in the mirror before you run your mouth. And how are those current day Cardinals doing?

    If we are talking about looking in the mirror, how about starting with the Astros fans that defend their team.

    These guys should just keep their mouths shut and take their lumps, not instigate brawls.

    Nah, its a 60 game season were nothing counts anyways. And no one will hit them. And you have no big league pitchers. Start fights and finish them if you can. Gotta love it. Play the role of bad guy when you can, because it dont last long.

    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.

    Throwingat Ramon was not?

    3-2, 78 MPH curveball, really??

    Similar to what Kelley did!!!!!

    Yes at Correa, but the ball over Bregman's head was an upper 90's fastball.

    Is that all you got??? Is that the best you can do??? All you got is Chris Correa, some rumors, and a guy that was on the juice......WHEN THE ENTIRE LEAGUE WAS AND THE OWNERS KNEW AND DID NOTHING TO STOP IT!!!! If that’s all you got just go home and go to bed!!!

    It's all I need dealing with you. You are such a hypocrite get your house in order before you go name calling. How bout hacking into our scouting database, was proven you had to forfeit a draft pick, so is that not cheating? Maybe you should go pull out a dictionary. Juicing was wrong but Cardinals did nothing to stop it either, get a life.

    You should be more concerned to see if your team can even finish this season.
