BREAKING: Astros GM and manager suspended for the upcoming season over sign stealing during 2017 World Series run.
The Athletic quoted Mike Fiers, a pitcher who threw a no-hitter for the Astros in 2015, and three other unidentified people affiliated with the Astros as saying that during the 2017 season, players and other employees would monitor opposing catchers' signals using a camera in center field of the team's stadium, Minute Maid Park. The signals were then reportedly relayed to the hitters by someone banging on a trashcan.
The MLB said it interviewed more than 60 witnesses and combed through thousands of emails and text messages during its investigation, which was summarized in a 9-page ruling. “I find that the conduct of the Astros, and its senior baseball operations executives, merits significant discipline,” Commissioner Rob Manfred said as part of the ruling.
