On Sept. 22, 2016, an intern in the Houston Astros organization showed general manager Jeff Luhnow a PowerPoint presentation that featured the latest creation by the team’s high-tech front office: an Excel-based application programmed with an algorithm that could decode the opposing catchers’ signs. It was called “Codebreaker.”
This was the beginning of what has turned into one of the biggest scandals in Major League Baseball history. Throughout the 2017 season and for part of 2018, Astros baseball operations employees and video room staffers used Codebreaker to illegally steal signs, which were then relayed to batters in real time. Another Astros employee referred to the system as the “dark arts.”
I actually liked Manfred at the start of his tenure, he seemed willing to listen to fans and was interested in making positive changes to the sport.Baseball is truly a wonderful game for surviving as long as it has despite the idiots that have been in charge of it for decades.
Manfred and Silver both looked great because their predecessors were horrible. And then we discovered they sucked and/or catered to idiotic owner demands just as much as the old bosses.
I'm honestly of the belief that Bettman is the least bad of the big four commissioners at this point.
