If the pitcher gets caught, they get ejected, get a ten game suspension and that's it. The rule book doesn't really have enough bite to prevent someone from trying a sticky cheating scheme with the season on the line in the LCS. Maybe the possibility of national humiliation is enough to prevent people from trying, it's hard to say. That said, the Framber evidence looks pretty flimsy to me. I think a 10-game suspension - denying you cheated every step of the way vs. a playoff win would be well worth the risk. Especially with umpires that seem to be more obsessed with the gloves and hats. That said, if I've figured out a few ways to get sticky stuff on the ball and have a high probability of getting away with it, I'm sure these guys on the mound are leaps and bounds ahead of me.

I'm guessing if Framber was cheating he would have been taken out after the Astros got their 5 runs in the top of the 6th. One could say that well...he stopped using the substance after that, but then he proceeded to pitch another great 3 innings without the substance? Maybe, instead, he is a pretty good pitcher. Where is the footage of him from Game 1 coming off the mound? Bet he did the same wiping of the temples thing.

Benny 63 runs scored 73 rbis 766 OPS batting 2,3 in the order Renfroe 89.... 96... 816 OPS batting 6,7 Last I checked runs matter. If you were a GM who would have more trade value? Would you have rathered the Sox had Benny instead of Hunter this past season? Totally agree Voice!! Add to your analysis that Beni made $6.3 million and Renfroe $3.1 million. The arbitration salaries for 2022 per mlbtraderumors is Beni $9.3 to Renfroe $7.6 million. Beni is a FA after 2022 whereas Renfroe afte 2023!!!!!! The Red Sox also sent money along with Benintendi. They only unloaded about half of Benny’s salary. They could’ve easily done both.

Win or lose this was a very fine season, nobody would have predicted this team would get to game 6 of the ALCS. I just have a sense this is the start of something much, much bigger because of our leadership - Cora & Bloom are the perfect combo running this organization. Future is bright, folks.

Garcia's ridiculous windup must be tough on the knees

Why does the infield look like a hurricane cam through recently? They are playing in complete mud in a dome.

What a dumb at bat takes a pitch middle middle than swings at pitches low and outside. He has not chance to drive those pitches

Oh look, Xander pulled an outside pitch for a weak groundout. You don't see that every day.

This team is unbelievably bad with men in scoring position.

Garcia's knee looks magically cured, pounding the strike zone with a lively fastball. Didn't want to see him come out that way.
