@mylovesongs2429 4 жыл бұрын

Yes! I agree! That guy needs some soul-searching if he thinks using technology to steal signs in baseball is A-OK. If you use your eyesight to steal signs, it's ok. Obviously, the commissioner of baseball is NOT ok with using this technological method of cheating, if he just levied a pretty big suspension to the former Astros GM and Manager. It wasn't a big enough suspension, though. Baseball's draft is 40 rounds! Football's draft is 7. A Patriots penalty of one first round draft pick would hurt, IF Goddell ever fined his beloved Patriots for their cheating ways. A first round pick for the Astros would not hurt so much at all. The $5 million dollar fine that the commish slapped the Houston Astros owner with is couch-cushion-searching pocket change, as he is a billionaire. He could wipe his own butt with $5 million bucks and would laugh himself into a frenzy. The Astros players complicit in the cheating scandal, like Jose Altuve, are not going to be suspended by the league. The MLB players union is toooo strong. The team gets to keep their 2017 World Series Championship trophy. This Astros team got off pretty light, all things considering. They aren't untouchable, like the Patriots, but they dodged a pretty big bullet, nonetheless.

There is a massive difference between a guy who can figure out signs standing on second and placing your own camera pointed at the catcher and relaying what the pitch is going to be in real time. I truly believe anyone who thinks otherwise just doesn’t know baseball. Chris, players around the league have spoken about how upsetting this system is.
