Of all the Cardinalish tweets I've gotten throughout the years, this is far and away the Cardinalest.

@JeffPassan as a lifelong Cardinals fan I look at this as nothing more than stealing signs. Astros plunk Carpenter and it's all over.

And of course if this is true it's worse than Spygate. It's corporate crime. The greater point was that it is an absolutely monstrous story.

The shock over @MichaelSSchmidt's bombshell that Cardinals might've hacked Astros is immense. "This could be baseball's Spygate," a GM said.

The story goes on to state that the “hack” was fairly low-tech, as these things go; it appears that someone with access to the password histories used by Luhnow (and those who followed him to St. Louis) were simply used to gain access to the Astros systems. Unfortunately for the “hackers”, they used a computer at a home that was easily tied to the Cardinals — perhaps a home rented out for Spring Training — and the trail was simply followed from there. This does not exactly seem like the work of criminal masterminds.

so Gilfoyle works for the Cardinals

this sounds like the college football equivalent of lack of institutional control

Yeah this is big. Like Big Big.

It'll have ramifications far bigger than just the Cardinals.

Luhnow's next job is head of OPM.
