By now, many of you will have heard about the controversy surrounding Phillies bullpen coach Mick Billmeyer, who was caught looking in with binoculars during a game in Colorado Monday night. The Phillies deny any wrongdoing, the Rockies think they were stealing signs, and MLB, following an investigation, couldn’t prove anything either way.
PICTURE: Phillies Bullpen Coach Using Binoculars, Possibly Stealing Signs
↵I can’t prove anything either. I find the whole thing suspicious, and it’s weird that Shane Victorino would spend time on the bullpen phone, but on the other hand BIllmeyer used his binoculars out in the open and it’s really hard to see much from out there and relay accurate, timely information anyway. So, no idea. I’m just here to post a picture and let you be the judge.

↵Why have the Phillies been accused of stealing signs? "Because we beat them," Manuel said. "That's why. Keep crying."
