Who here like me is having problems with the recent sign-stealing scandal? Hirsch, Cora and Beltran are out. Taubman blacklisted. Trevor Bauer has revealed Astro players wore buzzers. Is the Commish’ going after the players now? When does it end?

Of course technology is not a telescope any longer, but still cheating.But relaying the info via electronics is a violation of the "code."
Completely agree. Cheating is a part of baseball, but so is getting caught and punished for cheating. These clubs crossed a line and deserved to be punished. I don't really have a problem with the way it was handled, nor do I think it will have much of an effect on the health of the support. Some people think the Astros and Sox championships are tainted, and maybe they should be to a certain extent in the collective psyche. I don't think it would be right to void the results or anything.I think the Astros and Red Sox went too far with this. I was pretty good at stealing signs and relaying them to teammates when I played ball, but I did it the old fashioned way. Using technology the way they have is not something I like, and I'm glad MLB did something about this.
The team doesn’t matter, it is our sport and it needs to be upheld. Angelo Bartlett Giamatti wrote will on this and I believe worked to uphold the sport.I think baseball should wipe the championships. I'm pissed especially because they did it in the world series against my team.
