So at any time we come up with an idea to do a podcast you have to choose a time to actually record it.

The time we chose is 2 o'clock to 2.45 Eastern time.

Well at 158 today we got news that the Astros were being punished and it was quite a punishment.

We changed the entire show when a full 45 minutes and I thought it was time to go sit in the sun.

As it turns out there's even more news that's happened since we did the podcast.

Normally we'd wait till tomorrow but I refuse to wait till tomorrow this time.

Listen to the nothing personal from today and then now you're listening to this what's changed.

Jim Crane the owner of the Astros met the media we told you he would.

But at 3 o'clock he dropped the bomb.

Jim Crane owner of the Astros has taken MLB's punishment of his president of baseball ops.

People keep calling him GM stop doing that.

He's the president of baseball operations Jeff Luna and the manager AJ Hinge suspended for one year by Commissioner Rob Manford.

Jim Crane has fired them.

This is epic and crucial to understand what goes into a decision like this.

Jim Crane was backed into a corner and when you're backed into a corner you do whatever you can to save yourself and to save the value and reputation of your franchise.

So Jim Crane said the following things when he spoke.

Number one, I don't believe this taints the world series victory in 2017.

Number two, AJ Hinge and Jeff Luna say to me and to everyone they didn't know what was happening with the sign stealing but they should have known.

Therefore we must move forward and the way to move forward is to basically start over.

We have no choice but to fire Jim Crane knows how to do this.

We know during this past postseason remember he had a fire another baseball executive Brandon Talman.

That's the executive who was making fun of people as it related to their closer Roberto O'Zuna.
