    The Dodgers really should get off their high horse. They cry too much and someone will expose the skeletons they have in their own closet. The Nationals and Red Sox have smartly said nothing. It is interesting that the Dodgers haven’t said much about the 2018 series... I wonder why.

    Since the guy deleted all of the tweets and the guy set his account to private, here is a thread reader made of everything tweeted

    https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1221266105748029440.html

    Includes NSFW pic of Mike Fiers ass that he DM'd to said 16 year old, and videos of him and the girl alone (which are safe for work)

    Are we at the point where if you’re an opposing pitcher and the Astros got a hit off of you, it’s because they were cheating. Because that’s where the media wants this to go. It’s disgustingly stupid.

    IKR, I heard the banging on the trashcans at Dodgers Stadium at Game 7 from a 4K camera that installed there. I also heard the whistling, buzzing, and telepathic pigeon
    These people have got to stop crying to the wahhhhm bulance. Make it harder to setal s
    I would've loved to seen Stanton royally $%^& him up.

    I like the Dodgers barking about fake. I hope when it is all said and done, the 2017 Dodgers roster with no championships. I'd be ROFL when some of them join the Astros in the future.

    And we've already heard multiple teams and pitchers say they used multiple signs...

    The Red Sox skating on this will be a bitter pill to swallow, after Alex Cora sets up the cheating system here, leaves for Boston, and they win it all that year. I can't imagine what Manfred was thinking, making such a giant deal out of this.

    At least Fiers is now in $hit up to his neck. Chasing 16 year olds around and offering to buy them boob jobs, LOL. What a creep. I like the poster who mused upthread that Fiers went to the Tigers because the age of consent in MI was only 16. More LOL.

    This persons last tweet is "People change. except pedophiles."

    https://ibb.co/QCmCysM

    Shouldn't take away from the fact that 20 other teams in the MLB were doing exactly what the Astros were and are now pretending to be victims.

    They want more remorse so they can bash us some more. No thanks.

    This is who were clean:

    Correa
    Reddick
    Brantley
    Straw
    Tucker
    Diaz
    Springer

    Everyone else is going to level off a bit from 2019 without the bro code.

    Yeah, there is an agenda here, like there has been with everything else on this topic. As soon as the Astros/AN Astro "apologizes" then it will be dissected into, who is guilty and who isnt. Basically, they are looking for incriminating evidence on a per player basis with an apology so they can start personalizing their backhanded comments. Imagine Yuli apologizing for "cheating." I would imagine fans and even players would start to try and take his game 5 homer away from him. So ridiculous

    And you're basing this on what evidence, exactly?

    Huh? The Astros should protect a potential pedo because they might look bad in the sign stealing scandal?

    This is a weird take.
