Astros Reportedly Furious With MLB Over Abreu Suspension
Some within the Houston Astros organization are furious with Major League Baseball over Bryan Abreu’s suspension that could keep him out of Game 7 of the ALCS and Game 1 of the World Series.
The Houston Astros are preparing for Game 7 of the American League Championship Series against the Texas Rangers on Monday.
After winning three games on the road to take a 3-2 series lead, they once again lost at home to set up this winner-take-all scenario.
As the Astros get ready for Game 7, they’ll seemingly be doing so without their star reliever, who is appealing his suspension.
Bryan Abreu was ejected in Game 5 for hitting Adolis Garcia. He was then suspended two games by the MLB.
His appeal will be heard on Monday and a decision will be known by first pitch if Abreu’s suspension will be upheld, reduced or overturned.
Still, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, members in Houston’s organization are furious with the MLB over this suspension and the circumstances surrounding it.
