Not trying to be argumentative here, but that really misses the point. The Astros had a camera aimed directly at the signs for the entirety of games, and a person in the dugout tunnel full time decoding those signs. If the signs were fake or changed, they would know within a few pitches what the new ones are. So in that sense, there really isn’t any sort of argument to the “what if the stolen signs are wrong” thing you just posted. That applies to what teams do with a runner on second, not to this.
This is exactly right - once they figured out the kadence, it was easy, they were seeing every single pitch, not just stealing having a batter try to peak at a random sign here or there. Trying to compare what the Astros did to having a guy on second relay a message to a batter is asinine.
