[Ryan M. Spaeder] Thread unloading on other teams' sign stealing methods before Houston

Thread starts at https://twitter.com/theaceofspaeder/status/1405039938769412096

For those who don't want to bother with reading a thread on Twitter (I get it):

Everything that I am about to say was verified by more than one player. I do not mean to burn anyone, and I love baseball... I've just had enough of this bullshit.

The Royals were the first team with a full analytics and video department close by their dugout, doing so in 2015, their World Series Championship year. How they used it, I do not know.

The Yankees had cameras in left, center, and right, all pointing at the pitcher's glove, rather than the catcher, to pick up his grip.

Aaron Judge 2017-18 home - .312/.440/.725; Aaron Judge 2017-18 road - .256/.404/.531

The Dodgers had an employee who was caught setting up cameras at Minute Maid Park wearing an MLB Polo Shirt, when he should have been wearing a Dodgers Polo, during the 2017 World Series.

This one hurts to say... my favorite player ever... "Chase Utley was the biggest cheater of all-time."

As insane as this sounds, I've heard this from multiple players, Adrian Beltre had a buddy with binoculars in dead center who would wave a beater (undershirt) if he was getting something off speed in 2017.

Beltre 2017 home - .362/.440/.586; Beltre 2017 away - .271/.333/.489

Everything Kratzie already said about the Rockies...

The Astros "sign stealing" method all came from Beltran, New York and Texas.

EDIT: an additional tweet: https://twitter.com/theaceofspaeder/status/1405205591522480140

I want to note that one player who played for the Royals ins 2016, just texted me saying that "every team had the same video room by then."
