I must say though it's getting rather stretchy as time goes on, I read on Reddit before someone saying the Astros aren't a good team and this proves it... they nearly got a ring this past season without any sign-stealing.
My point anyway, blaming the players for this is pretty ridiculous, and then theres a witchhunt against players like Altuve who didn't participate at all.

Found the Astros fan. First, who says they didn't cheat last year? Correa? Come on, man. And Altuve definitely took part. There's a handy and reliable chart floating around which shows you exactly what percentage of players were using the trashcan cheat. Have you not seen the reports? And how about the conflicting lies relating to his jersey not being ripped off? First, Altuve said he was shy, then he said his wife gets jealous, and now it was because he got a crappy tattoo according to his scumbag teammate. Take off your blue and orange tinted glasses and get real.
