MLB's full of it. There's no hijinx, merely people voting. Stop pretending you don't want people to vote a billion times a day and remember that if you really have the ability to throw out votes based on more than 35 from an IP address a day, you have the ability to toss that code into the actual voting mechanism.

amazing how easy it is to miss 1.1 of Mets reliever when you've got a 1 month old and are running on no sleep. Puello is tecnically on the 40 man too, were he not on the 60day DL.

TransMonk wrote: I'm a little confused by Adam Rubin's "You're Up" question on his ESPN Blog: Adam Rubin wrote: Are you more grateful for Dickey's contribution to the Mets � or what the Mets got in return for the knuckleballer when he was traded? How could this ever be posed as an either/or question? The key for me is that the Mets got the best years of Dickey's career (so far?) AND then flipped him for multiple areas of need to rebuild the club. I'm grateful for BOTH and I'm not sure how one would have happened without the other. The first could happen without the other, making it the obvious choice I guess. But yeah, dumb question. Clearly was trying to write something that would incite argument and failed this time. Maybe he can find a scout to say Syndergaard is no better than Pelfrey.

Who asked the question? Was it Puma himself? Because if so he's really painting himself into a corner of "no one will talk to Puma".

Special guest appearance by Iwan Rheon." and because most MLB teams share promotional ideas/vendors, this will happen ~20 times next year.

Edgy MD wrote: Hey, Yankees, I'm all for you making bad deals and getting worse. You keep doing that. But try to stop making our division rivals better at the same time. no, I'm full on Marlins in this fight. The Marlins are a non-factor in the NL East, it doesn't matter if they win.

Frayed Knot wrote: You know what I was noticing about Flores tonight, that while his feet aren't all that quick, they're also not clumsy. In his own way he's smooth like you'd want in a SS, just in slightly slow motion. He feels like a robot when I watch him, but he has mostly made the plays lately.

I've a fan of the home and home series. it's interesting. 4-game series is substantial, get to see both parks, DH and non-DH games, both teams with the same travel schedule. MLB scheduling is tough. I can't imagine they can't make it work, but they try to balance the intradivisional stuff and playing a 4 game series against all 4 might make it a little messy. Or we could switch to a system that allows non Monday/Thursday day offs. (with the rare Tuesday/OD deal)

I apologize for daring to make people think and questioning things. poor hack by me. I just happen to find hacking, and the idea of intellectual property as it pertains to programming particularly interesting. I'm wondering to myself if the use of the same passwords suggests the use of other things as well. Config files, database design, etc. The Cardinal employees illegally obtaining information is clearly a crime, but it certainly seems possible that the Astros are guilty of stealing intellectual property as well. Even if you rewrite a design exactly the same as something else, it's still going to be stealing. And if he copied code onto, and then off of, a personal laptop it's even more clear cut. Depending, on course, on his contract with the Cardinals, which almost assuredly didn't say "Anything Ludnow creates while here is his property alone."

'hack job' is a different definition of the word. anyway, imo (And a lot of other peoples) if the process doesn't involve manipulating code or data configurations, it's not a hack. If you run a brute force algorithm (or even a shoddy guesswork one in your head) to guess my password, that's a hack. If you just pick up my already logged in phone, you're doing something else. I don't know what the best word for it is. If I connect wires to hotwire your car to steal it, that's one thing. If you leave it running in the parking lot and I drive off, I still stole it, but I didn't hotwire it.

SteveJRogers wrote: it's not hacking. using passwords to access data on databases is not hacking. Do I hack the CPF every time I log in? If you are logging into an account you didn't create without their consent (or even using it when someone leaves the account open on a computer), then yes, that is hacking. If you created an OptimisticMetFan account or your handle as your real name, that isn't hacking. bah, diluting the word. If I sit down at your computer and type into your open CPF window that's "hacking"? really? The Plague: Our recent unknown intruder penetrated using the superuser account, giving him access to our whole system. Margo: Precisely what you're paid to prevent. The Plague: Someone didn't bother reading my carefully prepared memo on commonly-used passwords. Now, then, as I so meticulously pointed out, the four most-used passwords are: love, sex, secret, and... Margo: [glares at The Plague] The Plague: god. So, would your holiness care to change her password?

I"m not arguing legality anyway, I'm arguing the meaning of the word 'hack'.

John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Yes, and let's not destroy another thread arguing about sketchy interpretations of what's legal, ethical or sportsmanlike. Sounds like the Cardinals are caught "red' handed. clearly, that's for a jury of their peers to decide. Anyway, it's still not hacking. That word is overused and doesn't really mean "Grab an advantage, often by illegal means"
-
It amuses me that the way they 'hacked' them was that Luhnow used the same passwords he used with the Cardinals. I'm not even sure that counts as hacking. It's almost like permissible access. If we live together, and you move out to a new place and put a lock on the door so that you don't have to use a different key to get in, if I enter that house with my key, is it really trespassing?

Blue Jays are the only team who never won a regular season game at Shea Stadium.

And all I meant to suggest is this isn't a change from the "it's a week to week process" that we've understood it to be for a time now. Despite not really saying anything though, if Wright's not back in July Alderson's gonna get criticized for it.
