Everyone cheats in their own way. Astros got caught. Red Sox got caught. Braves got caught when we were losing 90+ games a year.

If your team isn’t cheating, they don’t care enough about winning

Or you can't win the right way. 100% disagree. It's an excuse for cheating, not everyone cheats

Yet he still couldn't hit the slider when he knew it was coming.

That's true but he could still get better by knowing when it was coming. Most of the guys who strike out on a slider are swinging at pitches out of the strike zone. So if he knew a slider was coming he could just stand there.

Okay, the Astros got caught cheating and in my opinion, they need to relinquish the 2017 World Series trophy. Especially if the Astros wore buzzers to know what the batters knew what pitch was coming.

So has every other team that has ever won the World Series

What's hilarious is that the Astros actually LOST a World Series while cheating. They should be contracted just for that reason alone

But they didn't get caught cheating and you and I have no proof, "that every MLB team has cheated".

What you people call cheaters, I call innovators.

My first sports love was NASCAR, and Smokey Yunik and Junior Johnson are held in the highest regard despite them being responsible for over half of the rule book

We are talking about baseball, not NASCAR.
