Kolek planning to go pro
Ny problem is more with the original Tweet. But really to Yu’s response? So you were looking into Yeli’s eyes rather than at your catcher’s signs? It’s not like Yeli cranked his head around. And by the time the camera angle switches back, which is a millisecond after Yeli’s eyes shift to RIGHT field, Yu’s already off the rubber. I find it impossibly hard to believe 1) Yu saw Yeli’s eyes shift and 2) Yu stepped off at the exact same time as a result. But maybe.The whole thing is hilarious. Every team at least tries to steal signs. But one thing I know for sure is teams aren’t stealing signs by looking into their opponent’s bullpen. I’m very confident saying that.
https://mobile.twitter.com/ChristianYelich/status/1195462269594812417Yeli just absolutely owned Yu.Also, the person who originally made the claim needs to learn positions on a baseball field before he makes claims of Yeli stealing signs.1) Yeli looks out to right field.2) The camera immediately changes to the wide view and Yu is already off the rubber, so clearly he didn’t step off as a result of seeing Yeli’s eyes look for a signal from...3) The Cubs, not Brewers, bullpen is in right field. So the Cubs bullpen is giving Yeli signals? Awesome. No wonder they stunk this year.
LOL
The Astros didn't even need to steal signs in 2017 because he was tipping his pitches (it should be noted that one of those games was in Houston and should be looked upon a bit differently in hindsight)
Astros culture of cheating spreading out to Boston and Milwaukee too? Maybe Brauny can be a character witness for Yeli? Will Fiers flip on the Brew Crew too and spill the beans?This will be fun, Wades. https://sportsmockery.com/2019/11/brewers-also-accused-of-cheating-like-the-astros/
Agreed.
Yelich doth protest too much. What a massive overreaction. He's a stud so his response sure is interesting. Donaldson's tweet was the perfect response.
I am certain the Brewers try to steal signs. And are probably successful doing so sometimes.I’m also certain that was not Yeli stealing signs. But if it helps Cubs fans sleep have at it. Blatant proof!

Did he stop stealing signs after the first 50 games of the season? Yeli was the only one getting signs relayed to him on the team?Sounds fishy to me.The guy had an OPS over 1.000 on the road this year...
I want to go back to the days of you saying Arrieta was a cheater.
Roids are awesome.
Protest too much? What was interesting about it?Every team in the MLB must be stealing the Cubs pitches when Yu’s on the mound.But yeah Yeli’s getting those signals from right field. Let me guess. Stearns has season tickets out there and is holding up signs for Yeli to see. 😂😂😂😂
Why does he give so much of a sh*t about a tweet that didn't accuse him of anything?You might want to look at Yu's stats once he got healthy last year, including those against your Brewers.
Read the entire Twitter thread. It’s literally a Tweet claiming they looked into sign stealing by the Brewers and he’s looking out to left center (when he’s clearly looking out to right), the Brewers bullpen is in left center (at least they got that correct), and Yu is stepping off because he saw Yeli stealing signs. The next Tweet provides the video. It literally accuses him of stealing signs. Spelled out.
I happen to disagree that the MVP should come from a team that is 1,000 games out of first place at the end of April.It goes to how I define value. Others obviously define it differently, because the star of a team that finishes 1,000 games out of first place every year keeps winning it. Voters are given great latitude in how they define "valuable," and I wouldn't have it any other way. I just happen to disagree with them.When was the last time Mike Trout played a "pressure game"? When was the last time he had to come through in the clutch to keep his team in the pennant race? I think it matters that for years not a single at-bat Trout has had after the All-Star break has mattered for the Angels in the standings. It is "easier" to hit when facing zero pressure. I know it's not his fault that he hasn't had a pressure game in 5 years. I happen to think he is a transcendent player and I would love to see how he would do when the pressure's on. In the very small sample size we have so far -- the 2014 ALDS -- he was 1-for-12 for a team that got swept. I don't think that "defines" him any more than Ted Williams' poor postseason numbers define him; I just wish we got to see how he'd perform when everything's on the line.Obviously, MVP voters don't think it makes a difference. This year, he barely even played in September and he still got the award. Thinking about it now, I guess that makes sense given that he hasn't had an important September at-bat in years and years.Finally, I haven't insulted you at all in this discussion but you revealed your character yet again. You even brought out your weird and tired Erin Andrews compulsion with a totally nonsensical statement.Have a lovely evening.
LOL. Absolutely comical. Simple question...who is the best player in baseball....Mike Trout...glad to see baseball’s writers agree.
