Now, the 2009 Yankees team with A-Rod, Melky, and Robinson Cano definitely didn't cheat at all. Nor did the Cora-led 2018 Red Sox, nope nothing at all there.



Mike Fiers blew the whistle on the Astros, and all of Houston hates him.

Now...Houston tries to blow the whistle on the Yanks and Sox.

Such a beta move by a beta fanbase.

Well it's currently on my mind as the 2009 team's manager just blurted out admission to a sign stealing scheme on national tv yesterday



I'm a stros fan, but I gotta make sure you realize that video is pretty old.

Were A-Rod, Melky, and Cano - all known cheaters and PED users - not all playing for the Yankees during their last title run?


Let’s vacate Houston’s ‘05 NL Pennant too. You know...Pettitte and Clemens.

Not really an NFL fan. But the Saints should be held 110% accountable for their involvement with the Archdiocese of New Orleans cover up.

Those bastards should fry.

Nice use of the term "beta". MLB investigation, immunity, evidence points straight to Beltran and Cora as the initiators and ring leaders, you're a beta.

I’m well-aware of this. They don’t need to Astros help in catching anybody. Astros are like the kid in the back of the classroom who gets caught cheating on a test and is pissed. Then goes to the teacher to say that everyone else was cheating too.

That article is from 2018. How are they covering that up in 2020?

They’re a miserable fanbase. Clearly losing any sense of reality.

I wasn't calling you a beta, I was completing the timeline on how the Astros all became beta. Read it again.

We can apply FCPA to Cuban baseball players but it better never be mentioned in regards to Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton.

Yep. You're clueless. These threads have made it very clear which posters have real baseball knowledge (even some Astros guys here) and which ones are just reacting emotionally to "their team" getting busted.


Well I guess in terms of the baseball knowledge part it certainly doesn't apply to you.

College football and basketball recruiting mirrors that stuff in ways. Lots of people making money off kids for no other reason than the kids being commodities. This country was built on seeing value in something/someone and getting what you can from that value.It's not like the Cuban players are being kidnapped. They go willingly. Government only cares because they want their share of the money.

Trafficking people so they can sign multi-million dollar contracts. Traffic me please! The most egregious thing is our embargo on Cuba.
