Verlander just soaked up all the attention going to Keuchel.

Astros Twitter praying these pedo accusations are true is a bit disturbing. It's not like that absolves them all anyways or that Fiers is/was the only source.

What “pedo” accusations are you referring to?

PED or pedo?  I was confused as well...

Retribution against the whistleblower has started.

Eh, a grown man hanging out with a 16 year old girl?  There’s a reason he wanted her to take down the pictures.  Potential statutory rape of a 16 year old is worse than cheating at baseball.

No doubt. The timing of when all of it is being discovered is just a little to coincidental.

So, there was a random Reddit guy that was posting about this shortly after Fiers opened up about the Astros.  He said Fiers was banging his underage girlfriend or friend or something and he had all the proof.  That was obviously several months ago.  I'm assuming he was maybe legit now lol.

This explains AJ Reed, haha.   Altuve dies come off looking better.   And it makes our “go out and get Springer instead of Betts” discussion take an added moral/ethical dimension, as well.

I still think Altuve uses other methods of cheating. He looks innocent through this study but I'm curious to see how he performs moving forward

This is great and really interesting, my only question is, where is the playoff data.

Is that adjuster for pitch selection?  Not sure it would be that material, but wouldn’t a guy who saw more fastballs have a higher percentage of bangs all else being equal?

Great work by this guy. This season will have as many answers as questions coming. 

Supposedly they only cheated at home. I think the most pertinent question is how come in 2017 the Astros hit slightly better on the road than they did at home in most offensive categories?

It would be really difficult to use the camera and computer in the clubhouse on the road. An attendant would easily see it and report it to the home team.

I'm interested in the approach the league will take to limit the amount of HBPs and subsequent bench clearing brawls that occur with the Astros. They're going to get beamed left and right.

Agree. We know they stole signs at home so why did they have slightly better batting stats that year on the road?
