    Oh he won’t pitch at Minute Maid. “Scratched with back stiffness”

    I wanted to give another injury status, but I’ll take the high road.

    Gee, lets get a obnoxious pitcher with a serious running beef with Alex Bregman as a guest to discuss the Astros...

    I don't honestly care, in a sport that has had steroid usage, spitballs and people gambling on their own teams......this is just more of the same.

    Kellerman is a piece of **** for promoting this bullshit. **** ESPN for slandering Altuve. He should sue them.

    That’s horseshit. It’s easily explained by what happened previously when they ripped Altuves jersey off the last time he had a walk off. It’s provides absolutely nothing as proof that he’s wired. That’s ****ing embarrassing from a sports news network that makes a habit of regularly embarrassing themselves.

    New England Patriots:
    - Repeat offenders, at least 3 separate occasions now with filming of practices, deflategate, and then the filming of the Bengals once again
    - Isolated offenders (no one else in the league is anywhere close to doing what they do to cheat)
    - Unprecedented success (6 championships in 19yrs now? I lost count)
    - Blue blood franchise with bandwagon fans around the earth
    - Thriving sports league (NFL)

    Houston Astros:
    - No evidence of cheating the past two playoffs
    - By all accounts, one of MANY franchises that crossed the line and have done so for the last 30+ years
    - Three straight 100 win seasons, unprecedented for our franchise but not unheard of in baseball history
    - Isolated, poor, uneducated, gum on shoe fanbase (at least per the national media)
    - Floundering sports league (MLB)

    First team: slap on wrist, all the major players in the cheating were back by 25% of the way into the regular season. One first round pick removed through everything?

    Second team: death penalty, manager and GM possibly blackballed from the sport, two years of 90% of our draft pool capital removed.

    You tell me what's fair. By the way, **** Jeff Passan for putting article after article out there saying **** like "the Astros got off light", "what the Red Sox did is nowhere NEAR as bad as what the Astros did". He's a carpetbagger from the north who is ******** on our city for his personal career gain.

    Plus if ASTROS players knew he was wired why expose him on TV? Wouldn't sliding into a base damage a buzzer as well?
