I like MLB's approach of just pretending the Astros don't exist in all of their marketing. Unfortunately, that's about the upper limit on how far MLB is willing to go to punish cheaters.

HPJoker posted:This is a perfect time to make out a deal. They're going to get a ton of TV money this year from political advertisements and everything should be back to normal by next April. The TV money will still be there and if there's a work stoppage, they're not paying Mookie his money. Teams, especially ones like the Dodgers, already have the money to spend. It's not like revenue from the political season convinced Friedman that now, 4 months before the election, he can finally spend. Mookie is phenomenal and was already looking at a 30MM+ AAV if not 35 because that's what superstars are being paid now. 10/350 is only cheap in the sense that stars almost never get paid what they're worth or else Trout would be earning over 50 a year right now easily but no team would pay that. If I recall correctly, Boston offered him a 10/300 extension and he countered with 12/420; 10/350 seems about right, not cheap. Anyways, I still think the timing is odd with everything else going on. I don't see how anyone is confident things will be back to normal by next April, whether it relates to baseball or America in general.

Intruder posted:Would 5.2 WAR over 60 games be the highest pace ever? It may seem crazy but he put up 5.3 fWAR over a 60 game stretch in 2018 (April 12 - June 18)  e: I was curious about Yelich's monster 2nd half in 2018 and he put up 4.8 fWAR over the Brewers last 60 games, but yeah I'm sure there are other dudes who went on a tear for a couple months.

Chamale posted:Barry Bonds had a 6.7 WAR stretch for the last 60 games of 2001, batting .391/.579/1.006 with 31 home runs. It's annoying to look at his game logs because I'll see a game with 4 PAs and a bunch of zeros, and think it was a bad day, then notice he had four walks. Now this. This is absurd.

I've found myself not really minding the cutouts, it's like the perfect amount of crap in the background to not pay much attention to and it's better than empty seats The CGI crowd is terrible though and should never be used again

Moustakas was scratched from the lineup and placed on the IL for undisclosed reasons after not feeling well. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2020/07/reds-place-mike-moustakas-on-injured-list.html The article points out that he hasn't tested positive and a player doesn't need to test positive to be placed on the IL if they show symptoms

Verlander is pretty great and also old so I think it'd suck to see him go down with a serious injury At the same time, I just remembered the Astros hired Dusty Baker and that's kinda funny

Sydin posted:It's wild to me that this is something that the players and coaches are even allowed to have any input on. You'd think it would be league doctors or some kind of central authority that actually knows what is medically safe or unsafe making the call to play or not. It kind of seems like that is by design. Any responsibility that MLB can lay at the feet of players/coaches for not wearing masks, not distancing, deciding to play anyways when your starting pitcher and two players just tested positive, they will.
