Still should be a bigger punishment...IMO

Picks are #56 and 75

The Astros' farm system will improve dramatically by this time next year. Great crop coming this June.

I agree. Should have been $4 million and include the Cards #1 pick next year.

Didn't the guy also get a lifetime ban? Pretty severe punishment IMO.

Obviously I am biased, but they stole draft data for two years and only lose two 2nd round picks?

And four years in federal prison.

Correa accessed several emails pertaining to the Astros scouting of Marco Gonzales, then soon after actually drafted Marco.

I'm honestly surprised the punishment wasn't more severe, just to set a dramatic precedent to prevent something like this from happening in the future.

Here's an article where Correa is claiming that the Astros improperly utilized some of the Cardinals data as well.

I'm curious how Correa is Tweeting from prison.

He released statements through his family.
