Quote:According to Rose though, Manfred fell way short of giving the Astros due punishment.
“So they fire the GM, they fire the manager, and (MLB) probably is going to get (Red Sox manager) Alex Cora, who was the (Astros) bench coach at the time,” Rose said. “But what about the players who were behind this and taking the knowledge? Should they get off scot-free?"Don’t you have to do something to the players who were accepting the stolen signs? Nothing’s been done. Is that fair?”
....
“Most players don’t give a damn about what happens to an organization as long as it doesn’t happen to them,” Rose said. “If I’m a player and every time I bat I’m getting the signs from the dugout, I’m just as guilty as the guy who is giving me the signs.”

When Pete Rose is questioning why MLB wasn't harder on cheating players, it might be time for MLB to reevaluate its course of action here....
