The Astros are a team full of a-holes. Yuli Gurriel needs to be suspended. 

Suspended for 5 games next year.

I agree, they aren't very likeable other than Altuve.

Another good game tonight, 1-1 in the 7th.

Powerful message there, Manfred. Racism is bad, but missing a WS game would be worse. Didn’t want to punish the 24 other players? Eff right off, you spineless tw@.

If they suspended him he'd just appeal it and play the rest of the series anyway, so this is really the only decision to make.

The optics matter a great deal here. Appealing wouldn’t reflect too kindly on the Astros either.

As it is, they don't have to. Really embarrassing for the club any way you slice it. Great series interupted by this dumb shit. The spotlight on Gurriel from this is probably pretty punishing, hopefully everyone moves on and a lesson is learned by many.

Kershaw v Keuchel with the series even, should be an incredible game 5.

‘Zackly. It’s a pointless suspension. 

Kershaw v Keuchel should be epic. Damn you, time difference!

Bloody hell. Roy Halliday killed in a light aircraft accident. 

The Doc was the starting pitcher in the first baseball game I went to. BJ's v Angels in 2009. He pitched a 14 strike out complete game and I was utterly transfixed by it.

RIP Doc
