The Astros were cheating.
Every single person associated with the team was aware of it.
They all knew they were cheating, every man Jack of them.
They got caught, but when the cheating was exposed, all they got
was a trivial slap on the wrist by Major League Baseball.
Commissioner Rob Manfred (@11 million$/year) needs to be replaced.
All that takes is a majority vote by the owners.
Manfred gave immunity to those that came forward. I’m not sure he’s going to last a week.
I keep thinking...how hard would it have been for other teams...pitchers and catchers...to change the signs between innings?
Thus, if a hitter gets the "word" that a fastball is coming when in fact it is now a curveball, would that be the way to combat the sign stealing?
I mean, the pitchers hold their gloves over their mouths during mound meetings to combat the efforts of all those Major Leaguers who can read lips.
