First off, lots of great data on the website. If you want to dive in more check out the site. It’s very clear the advantage this gave the *’s and it is not debateable.

I would also like to say props to Tony for being an actual fan and having the mindset to take off the blinders and doing the research to show just how much this franchise robbed many other teams and players cash and a possible championship.

Not a surprise you would not know how to write a proper thread title.

But you’re right, the Astros cheated as much as all of those Rangers on steroids 20-25 years ago. Just unfortunate the Rangers have never cheated anyone out of a title.

Watching out for all of the falling objects in your glass house.

Honestly wonder how many teams are doing this. I’d say there’s a zero percent chance others aren’t.

This reminds me a lot of Bountygate.

No surprise that Marwin needed the most help.

Another thing to note is that no bang meant fastball.

So if someone was being helped by trash can bangs, they were also being helped in the at bat by no trash can bangs. Which means the lack of bangs should be counted also if you know they were helping a batter during a particular at bat.

This was only done during the 2017 season.

Another thing that most people don’t know is that starting in 2018 an employee of Major League Baseball sat in the replay area behind the dugout. So players couldn’t use a monitor even if they wanted to.

Probably no one now unless they're back in the clubhouse.

This was cheating. Bountygate wasn't cheating.
