I haven't read all of these comments in detail, but I started to wonder how the Astros cheating may have affected bonuses that would have been due, or other salary negotiations for the players on the other teams after they lost in the playoffs or World Series. There must be many players that have monetary incentives tied to their post season performance. This scandal had to have cost multiple players on the losing teams millions in salary. I liked that Mike Trout came out and said the punishment didn't fit the crime and more should be done to punish the players involved.
