Betts looking like a lock to be traded - c'mon Padres outbid the Dodgers! That Dodgers lineup would be horrifying.

Be a bummer to lose Verdugo, kid has star potential.

Big move by the Dodgers

Don't really care about losing Maeda, he wasn't very good. Sucks to lose Joc though :(

Dodgers have moved up to +350 for World Series (only behind the Yankees at +300). My initial reaction was that the Dodgers were the favorites, but there are some legitimate questions about the rotation and bullpen.

I do think I favor their lineup a bit more than the Yankees, but it's close between the two. If Seager takes another step towards what he was, and Lux & Smith play up to what their tools indicate... good lord.

Also, nuance of degrees seems to not be a thing with some people. I'm sure most teams do some shady shit, but how much of it is remotely as egregious as what Houston has done? That shit matters. There's a reason parking tickets and rape have different punishments.
Most tv and radio sports people said the Astro's cheating was the worst cheating scandal in the modern era. Its absolutely damning.

Joc was one of my favorite Dodgers! That's a bummer, that said Betts is way better obviously! Not sure on Price since the cheating stuff but he was pretty solid in the post season. We really needed some pitching help. This is fantastic if so.

Pretty excited for Betts and Price. Hopefully they can win it all this year and resign him with out leveraging the farm.
