If it gives any unfair advantage at all, the Astros will figure out a way to use them ASAP. ([1,2] For those that don't get the snide reference to cheating.)

- dbg31415 1y agoOhhh I get it now — the joke is that the Astros are crooks. Like, actual cheaters who got away with it. Hilarious stuff. Classic. (= But seriously, they stole a World Series and faced zero real consequences. It’s like watching a gang of bank robbers walk free because the judge thought, “Well, gosh, they seemed like nice young men.” Imagine if John Wilkes Booth had been caught, and the government just said, “Eh, let’s move on. No hard feelings.” That’s the Astros. MLB gave them a juice box and a pat on the head. Total joke. Crooks.
