Utter stupidity. They are adding fuel to the fire by saying a damn word. Shut up and move on... The commissioner has ruled. It's over. Crane is a jackass die keeping this story alive

Why are there still Astros fans out there defending Hinch? Not on here but /r/Astros has crowned him a martyr

That spineless pushover had to go

This. I supported Hinch more than most on this board before the “scandal.” And I can’t defend him on this. If he’s telling the truth (he’s not), he’s the weakest leader of all time. Otherwise, he either willingly looked the other way or he heartily endorsed it.

I used to defend Hinch a lot, probably one of the most on here. Game 7 sent me over the edge on his managerial decisions and then all this stuff made me question him as a leader/person. Not sure how a grown man in a leadership position could not have the spine to stand up to his inferiors in that setting if he truly felt it was wrong.

He’s either lying about thinking it was wrong or he’s a vagina, both are bad

Some people were ahead of the curve regarding AJ. He's a California liberal, all you need to know about him.

Yeah, when I heard about the incident in which he punched a Dodger fan, I gained a bit of respect for him. I now believe that story is fiction.

Hey guys. I finished putting together that bang information based on signstealingscandal.com. Pretty interesting stuff, especially Marwin. Marwin had career year in 2017, but was absolutely dreadful when bang occurred during his at bat.

If stats are in Red that means they were below season numbers, green is better, and yellow is no change.

So they hit .279 at home as a team for the season, but .245 in the documented instances of trashcan banging? Sounds like we did these schmucks a favor.

shite Marwin hit over .300 that year and was not just below mendoza line, but way below it using it. He had 67 plate appearances where a bang occurred also. Did he hit like .400 without it that year?

Everyone has bad takes here and there man. Take List Eater for example. Dude poo-poo'd the greatest trade in franchise history (Verlander).

They should apologize to the fans for being worse when using the sign stealing method. They coulda been better.

Sons I am disappoint. Just looked at the schedule and we've got to wait until September, last week of the season before we get to take this show to Yankee Stadium aka, the Salt Mine.
