We didn’t even get real apologies from them though.
Basically all of them were non-apologies. “I’m sorry I got caught.” That kind of stuff. They are scum that do not deserve to be celebrated or praised.
The best part about baseball coming back will be seeing astros players get drilled with 100 mph spheres.
Nobody would even be talking about them right now if it weren’t for SDS’s abysmal and immoral decision making.
Should SDS remove guys like Aroldis Chapman from the game? He beat and choked his girlfriend before irresponsibly discharging a firearm through his garage. Roberto Osuna as well threw a woman through a glass window I believe? These things are much more serious than a baseball scandal...
There are players in the game that tested positive for illegal PEDs, which gives just as much benefit or more than sign espionage.
Don't get me wrong, i find the Astros espionage vile, but if you think you're just going to remove them from the game it's silly because you are not doing that anywhere else for other infractions.
Get over it. If you don't like them -- then don't acquire them!
While the domestic violence cases may be more serious, they aren’t baseball related. They are personal issues unrelated to the game.
PEDs do not offer the same advantage that knowing what pitch is coming offers. A bad hitter with steroids will still be a bad hitter. A good hitter with steroids will hit more homeruns, but that’s about it. Many MLB players have even said that knowing what pitch is coming gives a greater advantage than PEDs.
What the Astros did is by far the most serious baseball scandal in modern times. The sheer scale and severity of it makes it much worse than an individual player using steroids, anyways.
Nobody is saying Astros players should be removed from the game. They just shouldn’t be propped up on a pedestal and celebrated for accomplishments that are illegitimate. When other options are available, astros should be the very last choice. Not chosen over other better options for no reason.
Stop comparing what they did with other issues to try and downplay the severity of their actions. It’s pointless and makes you look utterly morally bankrupt.
Ok Karen.
Look, I already very clearly stated what they did was vile, and I will not be acquiring any of these players. I advise you don't either as you obviously don't like them.
If you are asking a video game to provide you your moral compass that's your problem.
Enjoy your cancel culture, this will pass shortly and you'll be upset about something else that needs to be discontinued in the near future I'm sure...
Ah yes, me not wanting cheaters to be celebrated and praised makes me a Karen. That’s totally definitely what being a Karen means.
People make these decisions to prop up cheaters, they are the ones with no morals. I think it’s fair to question them, and call them out for being completely immoral.
Again, there’s not a single reason for SDS to have put Correa, Springer, or anybody from the 2017 Astros in such prominent roles. Instead of doing the right thing and disregarding these players, they have gone out of their way to praise and support them. It’s wrong, and it’s sick.
