      Didn't the players get immunity for information?

          MLBPA would totally fight it, MLBPA would fight about whether water is wet and that's fine, that's their job. Just because some players in the union are mad at them doesn't mean those others players lose the protections afforded by the Union.

              How would cheating be protected?

              Furthermore, why would MLB give players immunity to find out the truth? That's insane.

                Uhm...how else is MLB going to find out if the players don't talk? This happens all the time; give us info on the racket and we'll offer you immunity. You think the players are going to confess the information without an offer of immunity?

                  You'll never get any where without it.

                  That's why hearing all the lying completely sucks! If I can tell your lying from sitting on my couch with simply internet searches. There is so much more out there.

                    Immunity though? Plus, teams KNEW about it.

                    I dont know, it rubs me the wrong way.

                      This went on for more than a year and a half. It's only because we can hear the evidence.

                            Should’ve gave immunity to the people in the analytics dept in the front office who created the systems, since they’re out of the spotlight. Work your way up from the bottom.

                              Basic investigation work. Anyone who has a lick of law would know this. I forgot the exact term for this.

                              Edit: Looks like "Transactional Immunity". Still looking for the term of getting lower level crimes for the big boys.

                                Manfred needs to go. Kids and grown adults have fantasies of holding that piece of metal and it means nothing to him.
