      You don't get much room to come off appalled as how offended you are either.

      Just the other day you literally thought it would okay to type out a post saying this world would be a better place if AB was dead.



      Glad this is now all out of the way and we can move on.
      Fair enough. I didnt want to clutter this thread with our nonsense anyway

      So not directed toward you. But this is how I'm feeling OS. Wtf is going on in this sport? We've got a commissioner that is just horrible and incompetent. Not that Selig was great, but Manfred is completely incapable of handling this job.

      I think you could make a case to looking into Manfred and the rest of his crew over these juiced baseballs. They continue to deny it. We know it's true. Its altered the game to a degree.

      I love baseball, I always have and it's not just the Yankees. I believed the Astros championship was legit. I figured they were just a piece or two better then the Yankees. So I gave them full respect and I was impressed. But now it's all a lie. Not to mention there are likely other teams involved.

      The game is flush with young talent and exciting storylines but this sport seems to be content with destroying itself from within.

          I have trouble believing Altuve/Bregman wore a buzzer; why would they do something as obvious as the trash can when they have buzzers?

              Altuve was more than adamant. He's a bull****ter.

                  I'm getting pissed off again lol. It's like the Astros had guess pitch on. Wow.

                  So here's a question. How did the Nationals win every game at Houston? Did they pick up or have hindsight on what the Astros were doing?

                    Carlos Beltran's niece also said Gleyber Torres was also cheating (by using a buzzer, I presume).

                      ^It's been confirmed that isn't Beltrans niece or anyone related to him as an FYI.

                      I don't think it invalidates the tweets though.

                            A lot of people also think that Carlos Beltran's "niece" is a current player's burner account, because Beltran's family says he doesn't have a niece and they have no idea who that is.

                                I saw today (according to Andy Martino of SNY) that the Yankees were one of the first teams to use this system, having it in place from 2015-2017 until MLB sent out their letter. They used the SNY cameras to decipher signs in the clubhouse and then relayed via phone pitches to the dugout.

                                So...did the Astros just do it better than everyone else?
