I find the attempted humor in this article dumb.

Conspiracy theory: MLB is going weak with the punishments on purpose to drive people’s anger. If they suspend players, vacate World Series, etc. then it allows people to get over it and eventually move on.  Instead, the punishment is non-existent to keep people angry yet interested. 

Not punishing the Astros could end up being a bigger punishment for them. They will be Public Enemy #1. Regardless of what Manfred's saying, I can see brawls, brush backs, etc. It's only pissing off the masses more and more.

Also saw where a Little League in PA will no longer have a team called the "Astros."

Someone on Twitter posted a picture of a shirt for their fanbase. Had the Astros logo with "Hate us" across the front. Wonder how many drunken, 8th inning fights in the crowd that will start.

Looks like they are already starting to get plunked.
