臺北時間1月14據名記Jeff Passan報導,凌晨聯盟公佈了關於空人「暗號門」的處罰結果,隨即太空人的老闆Jim Krane宣佈解除捲入這醜聞的球隊總經理Jeff Luhnow和總教練A.J. Hinch的職務。
BREAKING: Houston Astros GM Jeff Luhnow and manager AJ Hinch have been suspended for one year after an MLB investigation found the team used technology to cheat during its World Series-winning 2017 season, sources familiar with the punishment tell ESPN.

而在17年世界大賽達比修有正好是道奇隊的一員,當時它們與太空人苦戰到G7!聽到太空人被懲處消息,他今天也在推特發文說,「如果道奇要辦17年世界大賽冠軍遊行,我很樂意參加,如果這件事有在做的話,誰能幫我作一件『Yu Garbage』(你是垃圾)球衣給我嗎?」
If the Dodgers are planning a 2017 World Series parade, I would love to join! So if that is in the works, can someone make a Yu Garbage Jersey for me?

達比在17年身披道奇戰袍,他世界大賽兩度遭太空人打爆,包含G3先發投1.2局4分、G7投1.2局掉5分,當時被外界批評為戰犯,如今太空人遭爆料運用電子裝置偷暗號,外媒認為他恐怕是受害者之一。
當然或許他當時狀況也不好,不過難免會為他抱屈,至少他是堂堂正正在跟打者拚戰,而另一位苦主則是Clayton Kershaw,季後賽他狀態始終不佳,但當年也遭太空人狙擊,如今他聽到作弊屬實恐怕也不好受。
而達比修有妻子山本聖子也在推特發文,他曝光3年前世界大賽G7看到10歲兒子用帽子掩住眼淚的痛心畫面。他藉此回應丈夫的話,他說:「如果真的有封王遊行就太棒了,我永遠忘不了當時10歲兒子一路把比賽看完,但最後卻試著用帽子掩住眼淚的模樣!」
If there actually was a parade, that would be amazing. That day, game 7, I will never forget my son who was 10 year old at that time, watching the game all the way through till the end while trying to hide his tears with his hat. https://t.co/jHkioogH4o

山本發文也引球迷不捨,有人留言表示看紅了眼眶,也有人回:「那是一場艱辛比賽,但達比能告訴自己的孩子他不是靠作弊贏球,可以樹立很好的典範。」
That was a tough game. But Yu can always tell his childen he didn’t cheat to win. That’s a great example to set.

道奇老將David Freese也在推特發文指出,應該把太空人在17年這座冠軍拿掉!
Didn’t really expect the punishments to be this harsh. Good for MLB stepping up. Still don’t know what’s more frustrating tho, an ex teammate of the WS title team talking publicly about his team cheating or so many guys being down to use a damn trash can lol. Should take the ring

他也很高興太空人前投手Mike Fiers提起勇氣向外界爆料了此事!
Will Coleman I think you wrote an “exceptionally weird” article. I thought MLB would go lighter. Never said penalties were over the top. Prob light. Wish Fiers went to MLB privately to protect himself. Glad he spoke up. NEVER bashed the cooperation with investigation @12upSport

前洋基投手Phil Hughes說:「我希望能除去生涯面對George Springer、Jose Altuve、Carlos Correa等人的對戰數據,這很糟糕,他們能做這種事嗎?」
I’d like my career numbers against Altuve, Springer, and Correa erased from the record books. Seriously though, it’s bad. Can they do that?

前紅襪球星Kevin Youkilis說一個大市場球隊連兩年各失去首輪和次輪選秀,會給他們帶來多大傷害?
Fascinated on how MLB came up with punishment. How much does a big market team hurt by losing a 1st & 2nd round pick back to back years?
66% of 1st rounders make it to MLB & 51% in 2nd round.
Lastly, doesn’t the org save $ by not paying for the slot value of those picks?

首輪新秀能上大聯盟機率為66%、次輪有51%,認為這樣懲處卻讓球隊省下簽前兩輪新秀的錢!看來太空人卑劣的作弊手段早引來許多人不滿!而聯盟主席這次也說到做到,沒有讓他們再次逃過!而接下來還會發生什麼各位繼續看下去吧。
達比對太空人雖然真的表現不佳,但YT下網友都紛紛給予鼓勵跟支持,也讚賞他在小熊漸漸找回身手!
