The league handed down a light punishment for the Red Sox’ sign-stealing scandal, stripping them of a second-round pick, suspending their video coordinator for one season, along with Alex Cora for one season. If those punishments sound incredibly light compared to those levied against the Braves in 2017, that’s probably because they are incredibly light. No players were disciplined and no member of the orgnization was banned for life, so essentially Boston cheated their way into a championship with no major recourse. Rob Manfred continues to show his incompetence as it pertains to cheating scandals, not to mention basically every other aspect of the commissioner’s job.
