Last offseason it looked like the biggest story in baseball in 2020 would revolve around fallout from the Astros sign stealing scandal. It was the talk of Cubs Convention (you know, when we could gather in person and weren’t talking about Marquee Sports Network). In fact, I remember being at a Cubs Convention after party when Rotowear released this shirt to commemorate some not great comments by Alex Bregman at Astros Fan Fest, which happened to be scheduled the same weekend. I obviously ordered one immediately.
We were all on the edge of our seats wondering what this meant for the Mets new manager Carlos Beltrán and former Red Sox manager Alex Cora, whose actions were at the heart of the sign stealing scandal.
