We all knew it was coming, but even so I don’t think anyone was prepared for the hammer that MLB dropped on Monday afternoon. The league announced that it was suspending Houston Astros GM Jeff Luhnow and manager AJ Hinch for a season, fining the team $5 million, and taking away their first- and second-round draft picks for 2020 and 2021. Immediately after the announcement, Astros owner Jim Crane fired both, saying “neither one of them started this, but neither one of them did anything about it.” As for the person who did start it, that’s where the Red Sox come in.
