Scherzer got a raw deal:

And how many games did each of the Astros players who were involved in their pitch/sign stealing scandal get suspended for? And don't anyone dare say that is somehow different because they were granted immunity for agreeing to finally admit their guilt. That was pure BS on the part of MLB who couldn't afford to basically throw an entire team out of baseball. The hit to owner's pocketbooks wouldn't be nice, and can only imagine the disruption to the broadcasters and their sponsors/advertisers, along with the potential lawsuits for breach of contracts and resulting loss of revenue issues, and so on. Plus, we all know damn well that the Player's Union would have mounted a tremendous suit to fight MLB and the Commissioner's office as well, and at the end of the day, the only party(ies) coming out on top would have been the attorneys walking away with millions of dollars in their pockets.

And speaking of people getting tossed from games and suspended for alleged illegal substance being used, guess how many times in his career Gaylord Perry, notorious for alleged throwing of spitballs, was actually ejected from a game for supposedly doing so, and what was found on, or done to, the ball?
