On Monday, Houston Astros manager A.J. Hinch and general manager Jeff Luhnow were fired by owner Jim Crane for their role in a sign-stealing system.
That came after Commissioner Rob Manfred announced a one-year suspension for both and strongly hinted that current Boston manager Alex Cora — the Astros bench coach in 2017 — will face equal or more severe punishment. Manfred said Cora developed the sign-stealing system used by the Astros. The Red Sox are under investigation for sign-stealing in Cora’s first season as manager in 2018, when Boston won the World Series.
