Mets should fire Beltran takes are hilariously awful. Whether or not you agree, MLB absolved all the players and none are being punished. Why should the Mets punish Beltran in light of MLB saying they are not at fault? Further I'd you think the Mets should do something despite MLB saying they're ok, then it follows that you think every other former or current Astro who may or may not possibly have been involved should also be punished no matter what team they're on right?

Like this is absolutely brutally bad take to think he should be fired as a Met for something he did as an Astro when MLB already cleared it. Feel free to not like the fact he, or any Astro participated in the scheme cuz it sucks that this happened but it makes literally 0 sense for him to get fired over it unless you are going to suspend or "fire" every Astros player which is stupid. The coaches and higher ups are the ones at fault here. The players were likely just following orders
The MLB repeatedly namedropped him in a way that is begging the Mets to punish him themselves because the MLB doesn't want to go through the union to do it. He was clearly one of the people who originated the concept.

Beltran should've been out before Cora.

The Mets will spend all year under massive negative scrutiny if they keep Beltran and it will make them the butt of the league like they've never been before.

Honestly I'd prefer they not win with him. Any success they have with Beltran comes with a giant asterisk. I'd be far more comfortable with them losing 100 games than with the taint that comes from winning a world series under Beltran.
