    He speaks the truth, I have proof. The baseballs have tiny electronic devices in them, makes them like a satellite and their flight is controllable. The baseballs become like little Sputniks. Turn the TV up as loud as it does, you can hear the ball beeping.

    If anybody controlling the outcome of the game its the fucking umpires calling bogus balls and strikes the MLB for a fact do not need them those fuckers are useless in todays game why even still have them?  Because of baseball tradition some idiots would probably say and entertainment purposes nothing like seeing players/managers argue bad calls and getting ejected...  WWE

    Out of all pro sports MLB is the LEAST rigged.

    Now if you wanna make the case the NBA is rigged I might believe that.

    But MLB? No definitely not.

    What you are saying is TRUE however just look at it from another perspective. MLB is scripted for sure.. NOT RIGGED.. Just ensure you are on the right side of the script.. Thats all...

    Don’t like it don’t bet it!!! And don’t be one of those guys who hate sports-or think it’s waste of time. I love sports and plan everything around them. And just ride the twins and you will come out on top.

    Dude, guess what? The more people betting, the more $ the books make. Simple as that. It's hard enough to win as it is.  Now with dumb $ from novice bettors the bookie couldn't be happier. There is no need to manipulate shit imo.

    @undermysac

     Exactly. If it was rigged a disgruntled former player/coach/FO member would have already spilled the beans...

     

    And yes more players just means more juice for them to collect...they have their profit baked into the odds

     

    Wonder how bad the OP beat was...we all have had brutal bad beats

    You're just another guy who lost his money, and is looking to blame it on something, anything, other than the fact that you lost because you bet the wrong teams... Again.

    Not rigged. It’s every pitcher in baseball sucks. Starters can’t get passed 6 innings and the relievers are trash.

    Not rigged. It’s every pitcher in baseball sucks. Starters can’t get passed 6 innings and the relievers are trash.

    Everyone knows the game has changed. It's just most of us understand why. Doesn't mean we like it, or even accept it. We just understand the reasoning. You, on the other hand, have not watched the game in 5 years, lost a bet, and you're now crying "rigged".

    The volume of action on any given baseball game doesn't even justify rigging.

    In other words you have no discernment skills.

    The pitchers are complaining about the fact the league has two different balls,, ones heavier than the other. Convenience for causing certain situations to happen.

    Are you too dense to realize that even playing with two balls of varying weight, far too much is still left up to chance to rig a game. The league has manipulated things in order to increase run output but that doesn't equate to rigging. The ball is still the ball. There are no magnets in them.

    Lololololol manipulated run output is in fact rigging. 

    Weighted balls does in fact change the game. 

    Magnets? You're making a pointless remark to deflect.  That's in footballs. And yes that's been proven by the fact they put trackers in footballs.

    Those are magnetic.
