 The baseball story will not die. Is there more, is there news? Well, I like to go with the expert. So the Altuve part is still very, very intriguing to people. And he hit the home run of Chapman. So Chapman tweets out an hour ago. You know that Twitter meme of Michael Jackson in the theater anxious leading popcorn group? And Chapman writes about, he has two flame emojis. And it says, anxiously waiting what's coming next against the astro, something like that. Specifically is me watching all the astros cheating drama go down. Right, OK. So the Altuve thing, did he have an electronic device attached to his right shoulder? Did he know what pitch Chapman was going to throw? And then the interview with Ken Rosenthal. Ken Rosenthal is the guy that's secure in his standing, where he was getting a lot of platitudes and accolades for asking Altuve, why did you say, don't rip my shirt off? And he said, I didn't even see him say that. He goes, my producer gave me the question in my ear. Very cool of Ken. Well, anyway, so Altuve at first goes, what? And then answers the question. Well, we went to a noted thespian, who rings in on Twitter, the great Chaz Palmentary of a Bronx tale. Also a Yankee fan. Very big Yankee fan. And he says, Ken Rosenthal asked Jose Altuve the question why he didn't want a shirt ripped off. In the book of How to Spot a Liar, Liars always ask you to repeat the question. Then they laugh. Then they give you more than one answer, I rest my case. Is that really true, though? That's what Chaz said. Ask Chaz, did he make up that rule of lying that it's a what? Laugh multiple answers, because here's what how it happened. And you can hear all three very clearly. All around the bases, what was going through your mind? Well, the only thing I was seeing in the worksheets was a gang. You asked your teammates not to tear your shirt. Why? You asked your teammates not to tear your shirt. Why was that? I don't know. I'm too shy. Last time they did. All three. First, he said what? Then he said, then he laughed. Then he said, I'm too shy. Then he said, I got trouble with my wife. And then he laughed again. Chaz commentary. Are we still breaking this down? I mean, come on. The evidence is overwhelming. You're a witness counselor at this point, right? So baseball, and with Jeff Pat, and again, I said this in the soft open, you should read Jeff Passon's story on ESPN.com, talking about how yesterday was like a seminal day for baseball, where all these stars aligned and people on the acusate. And I guess what he's trying to say in the story, the milk is out of the udder. It seemed like Rob Manfred, the commissioner of baseball, thought he tied everything into a tight little bow. No, because now players are revolting. Players don't want to play in a game where this stuff happens. And there's a couple of players that tweeted out overnight, I would much rather face a steroid guy than a guy who knows what pitch is coming. So they're looking at this as even more egregious than being juiced up on roids. It's the worst cheating of all time. If this turns out to be true, that there's the buzzer thing and the video operation, this is the worst thing ever. And not only that, the lifetime ban on Pete Rose is so fraudulent, the idea that gambling could be even close to in the same category as this. When no one really believes that Pete ever threw games to lose, the idea that he'd be banned for life and that you wouldn't ban, I'm sorry, that you wouldn't ban these guys for life? Well, here's the problem, if all the players that allegedly cheated were PED guys, they all would have been suspended. All right? None of the players that are in question have been suspended. So Altuve, and I looked this up, most popular Major League players jerseys in 2019, Altuve is eighth. This is one of the most popular players in baseball. He's not going away, he's still there, all right? Also on the list of the highest selling jerseys, Alex Bregman, another guy that allegedly is cheated. Then you throw Springer, he wasn't named, but he's on the team, three of the top 20 jerseys are Astros, and not to mention something that quietly was thrown out there yesterday was the Mike Trout, HGH, by the way, best player in baseball, and he's number nine in jersey sales, all right? And even though I'm not sure we were supposed to believe the HGH stuff, it's out there. So yesterday was pretty damaging to the sport, Michael, where some big names have been accused of some real heinous stuff. There still could be on national television. The Astros, I'm sure, being the defending American League champions, they're gonna play a lot on Sunday night baseball. They're gonna play a lot on the game of the week. So if they were PED guys, Peter, they'd be gone. They'd be suspended for half the year. They're still here, still playing. What does that do for baseball? These are huge names on a huge team. And there's going to be an air of suspicion around them. You know, I was, you try to parse everything now down to its purest form, and I looked at the quote released by Scott Boris. It was very odd the way it was worded about Altuve with the electronic devices, and none of it is clear and clean, but the one problem that's going to happen unless somebody who was operating the buzzer gives these guys up, I don't know, there's no way that you could punish them. And you also wonder the immunity granted to them in talking about the trash can banging episode, does that extend into possibly 2019? Let me ask you this, Michael. This just kind of popped into my head. Let's say I live in New Jersey, which I do. And let's say I had a significant amount of money on the Yankees in Game Six. What you did? I did, but not significant enough that I'm going to bat an eye at it. But let's say I did, legally. gambling's legal in New Jersey. Could I file a lawsuit against the Astros? Hey, listen, there's allegations that these guys cheated me out of money, that I could have possibly won and didn't because they cheated, did something against the rules. I don't know if it would hold any water, but could it be enough where it would have to be investigated further by more than just Major League Baseball? Because that affected things outside of between the lines where baseball controls it. Peter, what if I had $100,000 on that game? Now, that doesn't mean I would have won the game or won the money. If Al Tuve had struck out, we're still going extra innings. But isn't there enough information out there that maybe that game was won by cheating? I mean, the evidence is overwhelming. Baseball can ignore it because they've got a players association to deal with. But you tell me there's not enough there to investigate what exactly what's going on? What's that bulge in his chest? Why didn't he want his jersey ripped off? You bring up a really good point if the government gets involved because that's what really spurred on the steroid situation as well. Exactly. Well, why wouldn't they? They got involved in the PEDs. Why? Because PEDs were illegal at the time. I'm sure this is a conspiracy that did violate some rules in the state of Texas, no? I also wonder if there will be some players that were victimized by the Astros pitchers that might say, I'm gonna sue them. I wonder. Because the dam is burst now. And there's no way, now in defense of the Astros, it's hard to prove a negative. Or it's hard to prove anything that happened last year and there's already been an investigation. And MLB has already come out and said, we didn't find anything. Did they really look enough? We had John Boyle on yesterday and he said that there were memos circulated around Major League Baseball. During 2017, when you go in a minute, May Park, be careful about the banging of the track. They knew what was happening. They didn't act on it until the athletic wrote the story and got Mike Fires on the record. So I don't know what would cause them to reopen it other than maybe the players being angry about it because I think that this cross is a Rubicon that just insults people. I mean, you're gonna put vibrating electronic chips on your body for this?
