I want to Punish the Astros in my Franchise

So as I am wrapping up my 2019 year and will be moving into the 2020 season, I have decided that I want to Punish the Astro's for the cheating scandal.

So I am thinking about going in an injuring a few players for some time up to a whole season for their transgressions.

I would appreciate some input on who and how long you think various Players should be punished. I am not worried about how this will effect careers and such down the road. I just think this is an interesting experiment.

Carlos Correa: head injury- out the entire season.

These guys have all been pretty unapologetic but Correa gets the ultimate whammy for running his mouth on top of everything.

Seriously though, I was thinking of editing every Astro hitters contact down a few points because the devs rate players off the past three years. Perhaps the Astros players are actually overrated in the game.

But I feel like I’d be cheating at the game to lower CPU player ratings.

Re: I want to Punish the Astro's in my Franchise

Every current prospect and those drafted give max potential of 75. Knock 10 overall and 20 potential off of all players involved or whomever you want. Edit their prospects the next 2 drafts to have max potential of 75. I did this in a test simulation and by 2021 they were bottom dwellers and on a long term rebuild.

Re: I want to Punish the Astro's in my Franchise

Bullit, Bullit, Bullit... didnt ya'll do enough to damage Houston's fragile psyche in October? those poor feller's are the real victims in the whole affair. haven't they suffered enough in losing the one man in Hinch that tried in vain to stand up to Cora and Beltran and do the right thing? sure, he didn't succeed, but at least he half-heartedly tried.ahh, who am I kidding, torch them bastards.


I'm taking a different approach though. gonna do a Reverse Franchise and play as all 162 Houston's 2020 opponents. I think I can make them this years Detroit Tigers, my aim is to hold them under 60 wins.

I'm in 2020 and just did the draft. I forfeited their first 2 picks.

Let the rest play out. I'm not gonna change any attributes or prospect ratings.

I do think I'll withstand from trading players and letting them get to contract years and walking though.

Re: I want to Punish the Astro's in my Franchise

looking at Astros fan Tony Adams 'bangs chart' list, Marwin , Springer, Beltran, Bregman & Yuli were the recipients of 120-147 bangs. except for Beltran, they should get 80 game suspensions/injured list (IMO). Correa, Marisnick, McCann & Gattis received 45-97 bangs. I assume McCann & Gattis wont be in the Show this year, but the other 2 should get 40 game suspensions/injured list. Altuve, Aoki, Tyler White, Derek Fisher,Reddick, JD Davis, Stassi, Maybin & Centeno, 13-28 bangs, 20 game suspension/injured list. AJ Reed 4 bangs, 10 game suspension/injured list. Tony Kemp, 0 bangs, 0 suspension.
