Manfred calls the Championship a "hunk of metal," then has to walk it back. Because devaluing the championship in the sport where you're the commissioner, is, you know, pretty fucking stupid. He also doesn't get to decide when it time for everyone to "move on." Fans and players are pissed at the Astros organization, and if you're not going to punish the players or the ownership for their actions and their attempt to Cuban B the entire thing, then you need to just sit back, let it play out, and just pray that the season presents other intriguing story lines.

As for the Astros organization, they're continuously fucking this up. The owner's attempts to downplay the whole thing were pretty fucking pathetic. And Alltuve trying to show off his collarbone tattoo as proof of anything is just lame.

The players want people to move on? Try giving a real, actual apology. At this point, they're still reading Statements of Regret off of pieces of paper.

Since Manfred gave them immunity, then there's no reason to detail EVERYTHING they did, in public, and give a sincere apology for doing it. Then maybe players and fans might start moving on. These guys are still in denial that they did anything wrong.
