Some more detailed accusations from Logan Morrison on Instagram, calling out the Astros as far back as 2014, as well as the Yankees, Dodgers, and Red Sox for using technology to aid sign-stealing.

Logan Morrison is less credible than if Ben Allbright and Dan Clark had a biological child together
My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about

The Yankees have been accused of improper conduct before. In one instance it was improper use of a dugout phone. The athletic article that shed light on Cora/Red Sox cheating scheme said that the Yankees were doing something similar with a video room to break down signs, but they weren’t in any way relaying them to the batter. They also stopped doing this excrement after MLB warned all the teams to stop (many teams were doing this), and they stopped doing it before the Red Sox got caught with the Apple Watch scheme and before they cheated with Cora’s astros scheme. Who knows if there will be more investigations but at the surface level it looks like what Cora/Astros did is on a different level than others.

Your post boiled down: We don't cheat and that time we were accused of it we weren't doing it and even if we were we stopped when we were told to and anyway everyone else was doing it and you're just bitter because you're not us.

It's exactly what every Patriots fan says every time they get caught cheating. I didn't say that the Yankees were cheating, I said you sound like a Patriots fan.

Not even close man, Patriots fans defend their team after being proven cheaters and being punished by the league. The Yankees aren’t even being investigated. Nice try.

And yet you still felt you had to defend them.

Yeah we’re not using Logan Morrison as a source in this thread, sorry. The guy is a complete idiot.

I'm literally talking about your post. I neither know nor care about the truth of the claims you were addressing, I'm just amused that you've gone full Patriot.

I'm gonna "sound like a Pats fan" here too I guess.

We can pretty safely assume every team was attempting something along the lines of using technology to cheat with signs to varying degrees. The commissioner's office specifically warned the entire league to stop doing it. The difference between the Astros and everyone else, well, except apparently the Red Sox, was that everyone else seemingly paid heed to the warning.

Also, Logan Morrison is a queynte.

Also, so are Alex Cora and AJ Hinch.
Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well
