To the former, if I was a part of any MLB team in a decision making capacity, my catcher is never just throwing down one sign.

To the latter, this isn’t over yet.


I think if you're throwing down one finger with no one on, we can safely assume your team isn't also cheating. They wouldn't coexist.

"horrifying"?
really?

player have been stealing signs since there were signs to steal


BUt it was difficult to do and you usually had to have a man on 2nd base and maybe only benefitted a few players in certain situations.

Not this systematic every game every batter that goes up there gets a little buzzer telling him, fastball, curve, slider, changeup.

I mean that's not gamesmanship or bending the rules or trying to gain a little advantage.

That's EVERY player knew what was coming.

Still think opponents should have been smart enough to realize signs were figured out and change things up.

This is a stupid take. They are watching the signs every pitch. Switch them up and they’ve caught on a few pitches later.

You can definitely tell this is an Astros-heavy messageboard. Look at everyone defending Mendoza's awful take on the situation.

Keep in mind, Mendoza is also employed by the New York Mets in addition to working for ESPN. I have no clue how that is ok.

MLB baseball is unwatchable now on Sunday on ESPN. Mainly because the broadcasting booth fricking sucks and she’s obviously a big reason why.

Why is it an awful take?

I’ve already shown pics of him cheating himself.

It’s the guy on HGH calling out the guy on steroids.

He's a hypocrite and a disgruntled former employee. If it was really about "cheating the game" or whatever, he didn't need to wait until the Astros stopped writing him checks to come forward.
