I dunno? It's pretty remarkable how fired up the losing parties are. The steroid thing, nobody said "boo," because everyone new how dirty the league was, and how long it had been going on for.

I've read speculation that it was Beltran promoting it, with Brian McCann pushing back against it when they were both active players in that clubhouse.

Says the cheat that collected his rings. Still waiting for the follow up to the failed test he promised. Been over 10 years now and nothing.

The Crookedest Team in Baseball History
The Houston Astros cheated their way to a World Series title—and mostly got away with it.

Sources: Astros bans end in '20 even if no games
Because AJ Hinch's and Jeff Luhnow's suspensions are tied to the end of the 2020 postseason rather than a specific number of games, MLB will view them as having served their discipline this year no matter what, sources told ESPN.

As I told you a while back, you are going to be disappointed. A 2ud round draft choice and the banning of the video guy. A whole bunch of nothing.
Can’t wait for the Boston Globe to do another article about the masks and equipment Bob Kraft went out of pocket to bring back from China.
The Boston Globe will write an article exonerating the cheating Boston Red Sox and how it’s different than the Patriots cheating scandal.
My vitriol for the Boston Red Sox ownership is thru the roof. They are disgusting people.
Team cheated.
They got their fall guy suspended and got off easy.
This ownership has 4 WS titles and they are so tone deaf in their own city they are despised despite the 4 titles.
That is amazing.
Meanwhile, the NFL is still looking at that taping at Cinn. I wonder what is taking so long? Are all 6 titles tainted? Now the players are fleeing like people running from a burning building. Coaches too. Over under on the team is 8 1/2 sounds like average is the new normal. And the Sox got the punishment they got because there wasn't much done wrong. The Commish even complimented the Sox in their findings. meanwhile at Foxboro...Has Kraft put up his keep america great sign yet? Kraft and Bill B two red hat trumpers

Pretty clear from the barely here discpline, especially in light of how the Astros were hammered, that this was the nothing-burger that the players on the team insisted. I fully expect Cora to be back in 2021.
The Boston Globe is such a disgrace and New England sports fans hate Red Sox organization more and more even while they have won 4 WS titles.
This article is so disgusting. The entire paper should be shamed.
Meanwhile the President of Mass General Hosptial called Kraft’s donation a godsend.
MNA on Twitter
Screw the Boston Globe and hope John Henry/Linda Pizzuti/Tom Werner/Sam Kennedy and the Red Sox ownership enjoys Boston sports fans universally despising them more and more.
No Red Sox player did what Mike Fiers did. If they rehire Cora the organization is stupid.
Time to throw your hand away. It's a loser. And let's see how beloved the Pats are going forward.
The Patriots can go 0-16 the next 5 years and it won’t change the fact John Henry and the Boston Red Sox ownership and their pathetic newspaper agenda are never going to be loved.
Bob Kraft deserves to be mocked for his arrest in Florida. I am not going to defend Kraft for being an idiot.
Henry is a scumbag. What he wanted to do with British taxpayer money, he won’t give Red Sox fans refunds for cancelled games. You don’t believe me when I tell you Henry and the Globe are extremely unpopular.
It’s true. I get you like the Globe. It’s fine but just understand that newspaper is not popular and John Henry has 4 championships and still has made his organization extremely disliked in his home market. I don’t make the comments I do without being informed. The Globe’s unfair coverage of the Patriots has hurt the popularity of the Boston Red Sox.
That story on the masks was disgusting. Dugan Arnett personifies why the Globe sucks. His article on the Patriots popularity last Super Bowl was so bad Henry had to send out a tweet as PR to counter it as he knew it was beyond stupid.
And yet both the Globe and the Red Sox go on. I'll let you love the Herald. And the Red Sox are built for the long term. We will see where everyone is in 5 years.
Boston Herald is trash. The Globe when it was owned by The NY Times before Henry bought it was good.
The movie Spotlight showed that.
Since Henry bought the Globe and gave it to his wife the paper has become utter trash. I don’t like the Herald either. It’s just even more irrelevant.
John W. Henry and the Red Sox ownership are pond scum.

Red Sox: John Henry somehow even more unlikable during current crisis
Red Sox owner John Henry, already generally disliked by the team's fans, did nothing to change that perception in recent weeks.
