I have ALWAYS maintained Rose should NEVER be allowed into the Hall or MLB. What he did was more grimy and disgusting then what the Astro's/Sox did, but I feel they're equally bad in their own different ways. To be entrusted to manage a team and have all the inside info on your players, how they feel mentally and physically is a HUGE advantage. Why you think Rose placed the bets? Cause he HAD that advantage! The idiot still couldn't get it right even with that info. The house ALWAYS wins.
If Astro's wore buzzers that is a straight up disgrace, anyone involved minimum 2 year suspension. ALL cheating affects the game, it's a collateral damage affect. Judge gets cheated out of an MVP, earns less money in arbitration because Altuve cheats, wins MVP, earns more money. Astro's cheat to win, win WS, franchise's value increase 800 million dollars in 3 years. Its all unfair. If affects the balance of everything.
Its one thing to be Gaylord Perry or Phil Niekro, but when you have to go to the lengths that the Astro's did to win games, or Pete Rose to win money, then shame on you. You've soiled the game and bit the hand that generously not only feeds you as a player but your family as well. Same goes for ALL those steroid and HGH frauds.
