Skipped MLB 2022 but all of those I had before kept online stats, have played many games in 2023 but no updates. Fixes anyone?

With all the injuries at least the Astros have made it this far. Just so sad to see the Yankees out again after spending all that money on Cole, lol..

Man that has to sting that the Astros are still playing while the Yankees and Cubs are home watching.

Kershaw performing in the playoffs, that's funny..

Houston Astrodome - First indoor stadium and 8th wonder of the world

Tattis is the real deal, that was an incredible catch in left field.

Well, hopefully today’s game will be a little more competitive.
Slam Diego is just on !!!
Plus, no need for trash cans when Greinke’s out there. He said he goes ahead and flashes his signs to “speed things up.”
Hoping for a good one!

I want Padres to blow out the Astros...sorry lol

So quickly we forget how the Red Sox cheated in 2018 and with your current team no hope on the horizon.

I attended a couple of games there when Biggio was still paying and it was awesome..

Just don't understand if this was bothering him last season, did they not do any tests where the surgery could have been performed earlier? He will be missed such a huge presence in the lineup and playing H2H in The Show.

Yeah, I remember last season his knees were an issue, but was hoping it all got resolved..but I guess it didn't. :'/
Sigh... Just signifies what kind of crazy and bizarre year this is for baseball, as well as all sports!
Plus, I've always wanted to go see the Stros play in Coors Field and it escapes me yet again... #2020WTF

Do you live in Denver? Use to come up there for work quite a bit and got to see the Astros there, love the stadium..

Nice to have him back, his presence makes a big difference in the lineup.

You should seek help..

And all I am trying to say cheating is cheating, there is no difference.

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.

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.

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.

Go Astros..

@byrdman-10 said in Laureano suspension predictions:

I agree with you Cintron was absolutely wrong and he got a 20 game suspension. Look MLB handed down their punishment which was harsh and the Astros have accepted it and moved on, which everyone else needs to do.

Stop sucking off your own team when you know your in the wrong. He clearly provoked the fight and it would of been totally fine if he just stayed in his lane.

Can you not read what I posted, I can get you some help if you don't know how to read?

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?

I agree with you Cintron was absolutely wrong and he got a 20 game suspension. Look MLB handed down their punishment which was harsh and the Astros have accepted it and moved on, which everyone else needs to do.

Sure you would be loyal Cardinal fan as well? I get it that the Astros brought this upon themself, I have been an Astros fan forever and thru the 100+ loss seasons we had to suffer thru, so not about to leave now. Have a good day!
