What the what? Too many conspiracies to follow. Basically, Astros send this guy to spy on the other team (Indians, now Red Sox) from great field position?

It seems to me that they could steal signs from other parts of the ballparlk. Still, it's pretty disrespectful to put someone in the opposing dugout or photographer's pit. It makes me really not respect them as a team.The guy mentioned gets in or very near the dugout and gets info using his phone..heres another article

You have to say it correctly. It's Bud "The Toad" Selig.
I'm pretty sure The Rickett's/Theo &Co./ Player's Union will be discussing what the Cubs endured with MLB,but it won't change the 2019 schedule.
If you believe that the Astros employee was making sure the Red Sox were not stealing signs, I have a lovely bridge to sell you.https://www.bleachernation.com/2018...yee-sign-stealing-soap-opera-is-getting-nuts/
the MLB has responded to the claim against the Astro's (I , for one, am SHOCKED!)
gotcha . Why would any of us think the MLB is going to ever do anything when it may actually matter. Fastest response to an involved matter, EVER by MLB. Guess they didn't want any *blemishes* during the post season
He was fined $10K on a salary of $16M. That is the equivalent of $62.50 for someone making $100K. I am guessing there are many schmoes in the stands making less than $100K who paid more than $62.50 for the Machado jerseys they are wearing.Maybe there was more to Yu Darvish in the World Series than was first thought last year. They said the Astros figured out his pitches by studying his pitching (not by stealing his signs).
But I did like seeing that Manny Machado got fined for that leg kick at Aguilar. He's dirty.
The fact that the MLB *resolved* this so quickly is sadly...so MLB. What a joke.If you believe that the Astros employee was making sure the Red Sox were not stealing signs, I have a lovely bridge to sell you.
Dirty kick and Aguilar no angel staying on the bag. Both idiots. However MM slides the day before (I just saw highlights tho, didn't watch the game) dirty too. Brewers hit their 3 batters of choice yesterday..moving on. I am NOT a fan of MM, made that clear back during trade rumors but both were far from innocent on that play IMHO.Maybe there was more to Yu Darvish in the World Series than was first thought last year.

Maybe the Astros needed their dugout camera/phone guy to capture the image for clarification karma, baby...karmaWhat about our perennial favorite Umpire Joe West? Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
The mere fact that the ONLY division team with a roof has the most days off end of season should for sure...be addressedWell, I hope there is some discussion anyway.........
I agree with you. Aguilar kept his foot on the base way too long. Machado could have avoided him. They are both at fault.Dirty kick and Aguilar no angel staying on the bag. Both idiots.

I pretty much hate 12Up. They are the TMZ of the sports world so it's no wonder that they quoted TMZ.
