They have historically been a small media market team.

He's an awful guy if he thought it was cool to frick up the integrity of a WS Title and ruin careers of his opponents by being told what pitch was coming next and still accepting awards.

I'd rather the guy just used steroids - they aren't the insane advantage of knowing what pitch is coming next when it comes to baseball.


I see you've been following this story very closely.

Even with how you tried to frame the question to tilt the scales.
I framed it exactly as it is.

Hey, show me an example of a buzzer like you’re talking about.

I find it hilarious how the Yankees fans continue on with this drivel along with Dodgers fans. The Yankees were doing this shite since at least 2015 but want to conveniently act like they weren't.

When these players protest as much as they have, its more likely by a mile that they were pulling either the same shite or something even worse at the time.

This isn't saying what the Astros did is excusable. It isn't, but this is like the guy taking greenies bitching about a steroid user.

Freaking Hank Aaron cheated his as off with amphetamines but none of you are attacking him.

Right there plain as day. These cheaters cheat in broad daylight. Parading their buzzers around as if it was as benign as confetti and a necklace. Sickening.

Seriously though... do such buzzers even exist? I have been searching the internet and I can’t find anything that is available to buy.

It sounds more like something that was just made up by someone who just assumed such a thing exists and is readily available.

It’s the 8th largest media market in the country...above Boston.

All the players were doing greenies.

Explain why you chose Aaron.

Should be easy to disprove without sounding like a conspiracy theorist then right?

Many playoff teams were using electronic replay to decode signs....this is reported in multiple articles.

Not sure why I am wasting my breath but either breaking the rules is absolutely immoral or context matters. Can’t be both.
The Astros broke the rules and have been severely punished for that. They fired arguably the best GM in baseball and one of the best in sports. That can change the direction of the franchise for the next decade.

We might have to disband the MLB if the Astros win another one this year.

You claimed that what he said was clearly wrong even with his framing. I’m sure you can refute his post logically point by point then.

Jose altuve is the most honest athlete in sports history. I believe him 100% and if you don't well than you're just not a good person yourself
