Like after the first two grand slams of every game they should force a catcher or outfielder to pitch

both Boston and Houston stole signs during the seasons they won

theyre both cheaters and all their players involved should have been banned for life. guys like JD Martinez and Jose altuve should be looked upon the same as Pete rose or Alex Rodriguez. period

the series isn't even interesting either. the NL is where the excitement is

All sports teams cheat.

All sports teams cheat.

more teams cheat and haven't gotten caught yes. but no not all.

and its not cheating if you don't get caught. you see in America we are considered innocent until proven guilty. and the guilty must be made an example of so others don't make the same mistakes. if you think other teams are cheating then you should encourage the banishment of the red Sox and Astros 2017 and 2018 rosters to help improve the game going forward

I think sign stealing is worse than 1 guy taking steroids because it's like having an entire roster of barry bonds on your team. always having a major advantage over the pitcher. you can walk barry bonds every time like during his playoff appearances. you can't walk an entire lineup. what the astros and redsox did is far worse than some silly homerun record

It still takes talent to hit a home run, you can give a roided up bodybuilder a baseball bat, still doesn't mean he's gonna be able to belt out 97 MPH fastballs for HRs.

so cheating, betting, throwing games, taking steroids or stealing signs is ok as long as you're talented?

yeah I don't think so because other guys that are just as talented that don't cheat get the shit end of the stick

like how ken griffey jr only won 1 mvp cause of cheaters like juan Gonzalez and Ivan Rodriguez

and the Yankees might actually have a ring in the 2010s if not for Boston and houston


and baseball records might actually still mean something if Roger Maris was still the single season homerun king and hank Aaron was still the all time homerun king


and now lebrons about to roid his way to the all time points record in basketball. and who knows what that Russian ovechkin is taking either. we all know what his country is all about. and he's about to pass Gretzky in a few years for goals. Brady seems like he can't slow down either. modern hgh and steroids are manipulating the game and burying its history

Dodgers and Arizona were caught cheating. You are just biased with your bullshit cheating outrage

Stealing signs is way worse than roiding

its different if you win. but sure. ban every player from those teams as well. anyone that knowingly took part shouldn't have a job playing baseball. I didn't know the dodgers did it but I haven't liked them since they got Betts anyway cause of his link to the redsox scandal. and since magic took part ownership I was already soured on them. my LA team is the angels. I've only been cheering for the braves so far and I'm not aware of any wrong doing by them
