No but it could be a start You must be on some bad junk. None of this makes sense. We need to win to take attention off the cheating and you want to gut the roster.......Come back when you can make sense. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Thats why Im sayimg whats the best way to shut them all up? Its not trying to win with this club. No. As a hole we have to prove we can do it with some new guys" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The above statement is evidence that you are way off. Every single person on this roster except a couple are tainted with this histaria. Are you serious? The more you try and set there and say winwith this team the more every single move we make with these guys we are gonna get called on anything a sneeze a cough. If you dont think its getting annoying or out of hand then ur still stuck in the past. This will haunt us till something happens. And even though its already happened, never doubt that more will come |

And even though its already happened, never doubt that more will come What makes you think we can't win with this team.......Our lineup is basically the same and we won 107 games. True, we took a hit in the loss of Cole and even a little one in losing Harrisl. We lost nothing else of significance. ( Time for Bortaz to chime in with another remarok about Jake.  ) We get McCullers back. Tucker should be here all year and start in RF. Abreu will be a big help in the pen. We don't know what we get from Pruitt. But, we are still favored to win the AL West and have a great shot at going to the WS. A lot depends on injuries to Astros and other teams. Trading off core players is a ridiculous idea. |

Every change every time someone sees a sign sent to the batter anything pitching changes etc. Get some young guys in here who are hungry not making anymoney and rise the lightening. And i dont care we are favored to win. We are still tainted |

Senzel for Corria would be a heck of a start. Yuli? Reddick? Etc Then wait till the Deadline Brantley? Springer? Peacock? Devenski? Smith? Then offseason Grienke? Verlander? You cant tell me we cant get something that can start witht that group. We would be able to get top end players as long as the above do well and not below average. They gotta show it wasnt the signals |

I do not know what to expect on the trade front. I had faith in Luhnow to identify talent that might develop. It didn't always work, but it did often enough. Click is a total unknown. I'm hopeful, but there's no track record to trust.

Just after watching the clip on the MLB Network of the Dodgers, they gave a good trashing the Stros, they better hope no allegations are leveled at them. MLB handled the drug situation with kid gloves. |

After Beltran retired he worked a year in the Yankees organization. The Yes Network has total control of their broadcasts with camera's all over the stadium. There can be a lot of questions to draw conclusions against their organization. Just like Smoltz mentioned this most likely happened with other teams, and now they are on notice, with the Stros being the whipping boys. Exactley. It will only be us and that sucks. But to put it mildly we have to do something to shake this up alittle How money can talk, watched a clip on Yes and Cole is washing his hands of the situation in Houston. |

Remember Rafael Palmeiro. He testified before Congress he never used steroids, then got popped with a positive Stanozolol test a couple months later MLB handled the drug situation with kid gloves. Comments by Logan Morrison: “I know from first hand accounts that the Yankees, Dodgers, Astros and Red Sox all have used film to pick signs,” “If we are going to be punishing people for it. Don’t half ass it.” IMO, now that MLB has made an example of Houston, you want see any investigation into the sign stealing practices employed by other teams beyond the Red Sox. The only reason the Red Sox are being investigated is because Cora was with the Astros in 2017, took the sign stealing to Boston with him, and won the 2018 WS. If a comprehensive investigation of every team in MLB was conducted, the image of the entire league would be tainted. Manfred will not allow that to happen. He will handle the situation involving league-wide sign stealing with kid gloves. |

Logan Morrison is telling the truth. If he doesn't have a contract, we need to sign him.

They've apologized enough and are still getting hammered. Even when Correa tried to be completely open and honest about what is accurate and what isn't. You can pick out practically any team and find cases of cheating and/or unethical behavior. All of these people throwing stones and spreading false rumors are just giving in to mob mentality. At some point it's time to just embrace the hate, say f*ck you to whomever whines, and go kick some ass.
Winning another pennant (or more) would feel really good.

The team should make no further comment. Time to play ball and use all the hate as a motivation to win the WS championship this year. |

Bellinger’s comments are amusing. That choker went 4-28 with 17 Ks vs the Astros in the 2017 WS and followed that up with a 1-16 with 6 Ks vs the Red Sox in the 2018 WS. I'm betting he says that Boston stole the 2018 WS from LA. What a panty waste the guy is.
