Houston Astros Front Office Tasked Scouts With Stealing Opposing Team’s Signs

It looks like the Houston Astros are completely fucked after new Astros emails appear to show that Astros executives were not only aware of the cheating by their baseball team, but the emails seem to show that the Houston Astros front office actually requested their employees find a way to steal opposing team’s signs to cheat.

“One thing in specific we are looking for is picking up signs coming out of the dugout,” the executive wrote in an email, via The Athletic. “What we are looking for is how much we can see, how we would log things, if we need cameras/binoculars, etc. So go to game, see what you can (or can’t) do and report back your findings.” – Houston Astros Executive Asks Team Scouts to Cheat

So, now we know that the Houston Astros cheated their way to the World Series in 2019. I’m just glad that the Astros didn’t win the World Series, because there definitely would have been hell top pay!

As MLB continues its investigation into allegations of the Houston Astros stealing signs since 2017, a new report indicates that it began in Houston’s front office.

According to The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal and Evan Drellich, an unnamed front-office executive wrote an email in August 2017 asking scouts to pursue stealing signs from the stands and suggested using cameras to accomplish it.

In the email obtained by The Athletic, the unnamed executive states that the organization is to specifically find out how many signs they can pick up from the other team.

“One thing in specific we are looking for is picking up signs coming out of the dugout,” the executive wrote in an email, via The Athletic. “What we are looking for is how much we can see, how we would log things, if we need cameras/binoculars, etc. So go to game, see what you can (or can’t) do and report back your findings.”

It’s the latest development in the biggest ongoing story of the MLB offseason. Rosenthal and Drellich previously detailed the specifics of how the Astros stole signs from opposing teams with accounts from some of the players involved.

Houston’s alleged illegal sign stealing is something other teams were aware of, including the Los Angeles Dodgers, and some even complained about it during the 2019 postseason.

If MLB concludes its investigation and verifies the allegations, the league could deliver substantial punishments to the organization, team and potentially even players involved.
