Well, at the very least, I am glad this doesn't come with the dark cloud that the HOU investigation brought. Maybe there was a little more and the league is trying to brush it under the rug (hence the harsher penalty) or maybe the league is just trying to make an example of the Sox to keep other teams on their best behavior. That won't stop people from calling them cheaters, but there really shouldn't be questions about the WS win - unlike HOU where the results are pretty mind-blowing, especially in the playoffs with home/away records.
