Dont forget about Folty in ATL
I think if they went the route of taking away ALL of 2020-2021 draft picks it would have sent a better message. That would be sort of the MLB equivalent of the NCAA death penalty. Sure it's not as harsh but Astros can still draft plenty of high upside guys after the 2nd round and I don't think it will be that bad at all. Plenty of teams fail on there early draft picks but find studs later on. If it was full draft for 2 years, that would sting the organization a lot more from a talent pool.
I think that would be a bit overkill, but honestly would prefer that over just 4 picks.

And Lunhow and Hinch fired... Probably the best option for the Astros to try and save some face.
Wow. That’s pretty harsh punishment. Cost 2 guys their jobs. Are the Astros the Patriots of MLB???
I give the Astro's owner, Crane, credit for not waiting to fire these guys. His quick, decisive action will benefit him and the Astros going forward
That Astros managerial job is going to be very attractive. This team, even without Cole, is still stacked and loaded and only likely behind the Yankees as far as contending for the WS in the AL.
It will also be interesting to see how long Lunhow and Hinch remain out of baseball beyond the period of suspension.

someone will take a chance on them.. Lunhow is one of the best GMs in baseball.
I don't have much respect for Luhnow or that asst. GM that got canned, both come off as complete scumbags from the female reporter incident and how they handled the aftermath.
I am not commenting on his personality or character, simply saying he is regarded as one of, if not the best GMs in baseball, and I would be shocked if he didn't have a job in 2021
I think the Sox may be looking for a manager for this season.
I blame it on Houston...
Alex Cora's Days as manager of the Redsox are numbered!Would it be fair to assume that Cora, if punished by MLB, will likely end up being fired like Hinch was?

There is 0% chance he isn't fired by the Redsox if he is handed the same punishment as AJ Hinch I don't see any way he doesn't get fired.
Totally agree. I'm a Sox fan, but he's done. With his role in Houston and the controversy in Boston now, he's gone.Alex Cora's Days as manager of the Redsox are numbered!

Yep, they will can him.Would it be fair to assume that Cora, if punished by MLB, will likely end up being fired like Hinch was?
Looks like Twins are going to sign Josh Donaldson.
