I rarely see what people like or dislike about new uniforms but do like the blue one

Not sure I understand the excitement. Relatively bland to me. Except the hats. The hats are just ugly.
Drunk and stupid is no way to be remembered but it is an easy way to forget.

I think this qualifies as a random thought:

https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/comme ... 1/f4yk70c/

Posted 27 days ago:
I had a dream a couple weeks back when the astros were playing the rays, it was that after the post season finished a news story came out that the astros had a team of people deciphering signs with cameras and then that team relayed the signal to transponders that were worn in the cleats of the top (trusted not to snitch) astros players, the transponders would vibrate according to what pitch was coming (example: once for fastball, twice for off speed)

But it was just a dream haha. That wouldn't happen.

Francesca’s got the sign stealing thing figured out.
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

Manfred said that sign stealing investigation will be focused only on Astros and that could result on far more than just fines and loss of picks.

to the team that is driving force behind revolutionizing the minor league developmental system.

as i said before, couple that with baseball's culture of cheating, it will be a slap on the wrist with a fine, pick and a don't get your hand caught in the cookie jar again warning.

New Twins alternate is basically a return of their 80s powder blues

What is more? Suspensions? Forfeiting a championship? Loss of players?
