What are people's thoughts?
I think they got off light. Wouldn't you trade $5 mill , 4 draft picks and 1 year suspensions for a WS Title?
reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaly light...
there was chirping that the punishment was going to be game changing...like luhnow would be outta baseball type shit...
yeah these guys are gonna learn a lesson cause if they do it again they're done...but fuck it, they got jewelry for their troubles...draft picks will probably sting a little, but still...
semi related: espn scroll mentioned something about cora getting a punishment for the sauwks shit...
In college all we would do in the bullpen is lie about girls and try to steal signs or pick up tipped pitches.
Coach told us never to call out your team mates name when he was at bat. You could use a nickname but never the kids last name.
So if I thought I knew the signs or when the pitcher was throwing a fastball I’d tell my pitching coach. He’d check it out. Usually he knew who was good at it and just trust them. Some kids were real good at stealing signs.
The coach would yell out the players last name when a fast ball was comin and boom.
What do you think idle players are doing?
The technology assist wasn’t cool but apply some context.
The games the game.
The story went that Andrew Friedman was told sign stealing had been brought to new levels before the series and he did nothing. I may have posted something as it came out.
Dodgers will Dodger. No tears
As an addendum, usually in college the catcher gets the next pitch (sign) from a coach in the dugout. You don’t get to think in college.
So you could just focus on the opposing dugout.
Inside baseball.
Obviously those two were getting shit-canned for the owner to save face, although I have a hard time believing he didn't know what was happening.
Just lolz @ Luhnow, what a tard. Don't forget, he was the same dipshit who DIDNT CHANGE ANY OF HIS PASSWORDS after switching from the Cardinals to the Astros, just begging for someone to "hack" him.
