But they were not fined "for the same thing" the Red Sox were fined for using apple watches to relay pitches and the Yankees were fined for using the dugout phone improperly. Nothing with monitors, trash cans, or buzzers.


are you gatekeeping breaking the rules to get an advantage now? your infractions didn't work as well as ours so they don't count

I've stated several times I have no issues with sign stealing as it is part of the game. I do have issues with using technology to break those rules. The Astros from everything I've read/seen/heard had an elaborate that was further along than every other team and more precise. So congrats on the Astros on being ahead of everyone else.

Sad thing is they had some great coaches/players who easily could pick out the signs a player was tipping pitches from Beltran to Cora to Altuve but now we will never know what was legit and what was manufactured.

I hope MLB comes down on any team who cheated in the way the Astros did even if it is the Yankees because while I don't mind picking up signs I do mind that type of cheating since it isn't part of the game.
