The M’s brought him in to interview for the position, so that’s cool

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. Astros don’t get enough hate for cheating

The Red Sox, Yankees and Dodgers don’t either.

Because they don't? Even as a Yankee fan myself, what came out about Boston's cheating during the 2018 season, the method they used wasn't actually possible for the postseason. And they still ran through the competition during it. Yankees were proven to not be cheating (don't get me started on the nighting burger Yankee letter) so not sure what you're on about there. And the Dodgers haven't cheated either unless you count their infinite money cheat.

You sound very salty. Small market team fan I take it.

Yankees fan has thoughts about cheating. Clearly you are either ignorant, dumb, or in denial. Perhaps all three. Anyways, your team has a substantial record of cheaters and cheating within the history. Perhaps you should look into it a little? Or would you rather get your self gratitude being the cool kid online because the real world is too hard?

When was your last title?

Astros had a better road record than at home in 2017

Tbf, the Astros suck at home. Only team to lose all four home games in a 7 game series. And they have done it twice

u/davidio840 1d ago

Neither do the Yankees, Red Sox, Rockies, White Sox, every other damn team. But let me guess, you’re a wimp that needs to follow the crowd. Keep going, and going, heading towards destination: nowhere.

Fans when Astros after Crane sells the team and the last link to the scandle is gone from the organization - "Cheaters!"

Don't even watch baseball. But fuck the Astros. A true sporting embarrassment
