That article really makes keuchal look bad and Verlander look good. At least keuchal made an attempt to apologize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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.

He looks innocent through this study but I'm curious to see how he performs moving forward 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCCWS Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 (edited) 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.

ron883 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
