Astros sure love to cheat. Diaz tried to get hit twice, luckily the ump saw it

Wow.

The hate runs deep up in here.

It’s almost like stealing signs hasn’t been part of baseball for like forever.

I have no dog in the fight but y’all crack me up.

You are correct but technology has evolved Pmed. They were using buzzers taped to the leg among many other things. I understand gamesmanship but some of the shit they pulled was not forgivable. There is a reason the whole baseball world hates them. It's not just us in this forum.

He knows this. We had this convo last year. He thinks that stealing signs organically is the same as using technology to do it. Even after showing him where it says using electronic equipment to steal signs is against the rules. He is just being a Homer.

Why is it, that every other team seems to be able to hit McCuellers except us.


Ohh.. someone says he tips his pitches

No ButtHead, I don’t think it’s “organically” the same.

The only thing I’ve ever said is that stealing signs has always been a part of BB, and I believe that every team engages in it.

Keep in mind, I’m not BB fan, I don’t have a dog in the fight.

Fact is, Dusty Baker has done an incredible job with the Astros, even without a few very good (key) players the Astros are playing and have played very solid ball.

What’s with the personal attack outside of the shack And politics forum?
YOU as a mod should know better than this.

Yes every team steals signs organically from little league to MLB.
Not every team steals signs with technology which is strictly against MLB rules. Only your team has been caught doing this.
You know this, as we’ve been over this before.

It’s not a personal attack, did it hurt you’re feelings or offend you? “ButtHead” is hardly a personal attack and you know it.
Do you need a safe space, if so I suggest you don’t lie about people or put words in their mouths.
I stated clearly that I’m not a BB fan and have no dog in the fight.
You calling me “homer” is much more a personal attack than me calling you “butthead”.
Then You double down and insinuate the Astros are my “your team”.

You used to be a Mod, you should know what a “personal attack” actually is.

Nice try.

You’re report is duly noted.

Pitching. Pitching. Pitching. Philly's red hot offense cooled off real quick. That entire Houston pitching staff is just nasty. At least I don't have to watch the idiots around here celebrate. They greased those light poles for nothing.

You’re the ****head that said if you see offending posts to “report them”, I did, then you whine about that. Maybe you should step down as a mod if you can’t handle the heat?

I think as hoping for Phillies but was not to be.

I've subscribed to MLB TV for 7 years because I live in Asia and they actually blackout all playoffs games!

And you have to wait 90 minutes after the game is over to watch it.

By this time I'm at work or doing things.

MLB licensing rule does this worldwide now

I'm cancelling my subscription.

Rant over.
