GDT: 2021 MLB Season

[Lunatik]

Lionizing a cheater now?

Low.

Let's be honest, all teams cheat, they are just the ones that got caught.

Let's be honest, all teams cheat, they are just the ones that got caught.

Yes. But the problem with Astros is acting like they didn’t do anything wrong.

all teams steal signs

the astros took it up like 10 notches. not the same

 

[Lunatik]

Yes. But the problem with Astros is acting like they didn’t do anything wrong.

Honestly, who gives a shit? That's their problem, I'm not going to concern myself with that

Yes they did, just like guys like Bauer are upping the game on cheating with foreign substances. As I said, every team cheats. The Astros were caught 2 years ago now, maybe it's time to stop whining bout it and move on

pitchers have been using foreign substances since the game was invented. that's not at all comparable to the cheating operation houston had going with trash cans and buzzers

easy for you as a jays fan to talk about moving on when they're not in the same division as your team

We have the guy that was behind it managing in our division.

What good does being hung up on it do? What does it accomplish? Sweet f*** all.

and? do you think the sox are running a similar cheating operation?

why should we forget that they cheated? like i said, easy for you to say as a fan of a team in a different division

I didn't say to forget about it, but still complaining about it at this point is just pathetic.

Pointing out that they are morally bankrupt human beings is not complaining. Its pointing out facts,

who's complaining about it?

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Jays seemed to know every breaking pitch to run on in the Oakland series.

Not calling that cheating as much as players will take advantage of what they know to play better and try to win.

 

[John Price]

lol at asking to move on from the astros scandal especially as someone who isn't even an astros fan

oh you may not see people move on from that for a long long time

Altuve recently was praised on social media for being a good guy and was eviscerated in comments for "wearing a wire" and shit like that. "WELL HE DIDN'T GO ALONG WITH BELTRAN'S SCHEME" who cares you should have spoken up and put an end to it

smh

 

[SimpleJack]

I get why people are upset about what HOU did. But when I look at the year they cheated(won 100+ games in the regular season and made it all the way to game 7 of the WS and won) compared to 2 years later when they weren’t cheating(also won 100+ games in the regular season and made it all the way to game 7 of the WS and lost)....I really don’t think it had a major impact or altered their performance(s) nearly as much as people make it seem.

 

[NJDevs26]

We don't know that they weren't cheating two years ago, especially with the Altuve jersey nonsense. Baseball just as soon didn't want to get the goods on anything outside of 2017 because they wanted to sweep anything beyond that under the rug.

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

MIL announces retirement of P Jordan Zimmerman..... who also played with WSH/DET

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

A damn fine pitcher for several years in DC

 

[Blitzkrug]

NGL i'd pay to see this. An admittedly old Albert against lower level pitching with a ****ing aluminum bat? Yes please.

 

[c9777666]

A damn fine pitcher for several years in DC

threw 2 no-hitters IIRC

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

Patrick Mazeika hits this season: 0
Patrick Mazeika RBIs this season: 3
Patrick Mazeika walk-off RBIs this season: 2

That's an all time stat line right there.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Still can’t believe how bad the A’s ended up fleecing Chicago in that Shark trade. Bassist is having another solid start to his year.

Yeah, and cheating on someone is just biology in overdrive.

It doesn’t matter if their actions had an impact or not (they did), it was their intent and the effort they put in to try and screw everyone.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

After early hole (3-0 Twins) the White Sox have fought back and now lead 7-3 in 8th

Hopefully Sox can finish this up and get W

Yeah ,,, Well Neal Cotts helped us win a World Series!

When was last time a player acquired from Sox won a WS with Oakland?

When’s the last time a former A’s manager helped the Sox win one? Because I can name one the other way...

Getting Dye for nothing other than money probably helped a lot more than Cotts.

True about Dye

Forgot about that one

Still A's have won nothing from the bad trades with White Sox so why you always gotta rub it in?

You dont see me reminding Flyer fans about Sharp all the time or how Michael Leighton performed in finals

they beat your sox in the playoffs last season, so at least there's that
