The Houston Astros are once again under fire amid allegations they electronically stole signs from opponents at Minute Maid Park over the course of the 2017 season.
It prompted a strong response from MLB commissioner Rob Manfred, who revealed that the league is in the process of conducting a thorough investigation before determining whether any potential punishments will be handed out.
Some have speculated that the Astros could be subject to record-breaking fines, the loss of multiple draft picks and lengthy suspensions if enough evidence is found that proves the organization crossed a line. Others are more focused on the prevention of sign stealing going forward.
