Major props to Mike Fiers and Carson Smith for coming forward to talk about sign stealing allegations. There�s been suspicion of this stuff for years but pitchers were hesitant to talk about it bc they didn�t want to sound crazy or make excuses. Now we might have some evidence.

Sign stealing is part of baseball. It�s gamesmanship. A runner picking up signs from 2nd base or looking for how a pitcher might be tipping his pitches based on how he comes set is fair game. If you can do it using your eye balls it�s ok. If you�re using technology it�s cheating.

The TVs in the clubhouses and bullpens are on AT LEAST an 8 sec delay. MLB posts employees in the video room to prevent messages being relayed to the dugout. It�s impossible to use those feeds to pick up signs and relay them in real time.

Also �other teams are doing it too� isn�t a good defense. We don�t have the same evidence for them that we currently have in this case. Hopefully the investigation will bring more evidence to light and through new preventative measures we can remove this stain from our game.

Question, for threads incorrectly categorized, can�t you move the thread to the appropriate category as opposed to deleting it?

That would seem to be the easy and simple solution, yes?

but some warning so that the poster can repost and move the existing discussion is probably warranted.

Yes, I agree that would be the best way to handle this - but it is not an option that is available to us.

generally when we catch the thread timely - we do that -- but a request like that buried in such a large thread causes a disturbance in the force

Sorry gentlemen, my bad on NFT.

thread, and paste it into a newly thread with a bit of explanation if necessary? That sounds hard to believe.

And deleting threads like this is incredibly unwelcoming and unkind to well-meaning posters.

so can the original poster -- and if they request it -- I will email the contents to them

Clearly the OP can�t do that once the thread is gone. Good to know.

Thanks for your response.
