The Houston Astros were already under fire once in 2019 for an incident with the assistant general manager Brandon Taubman when he was taunting female reporters. It was said that these disgusting comments were directed at one or more female reporters, one involving a comment made about Roberto Osuna towards a reporter who was wearing a purple domestic-violence awareness bracelet. Osuna served a 75 game suspension last season for violating the Major League Baseball’s Joint Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault and Child Abuse policy.
Once again, the Astros find themselves in the hot seat as former Astros pitcher Mike Fiers supposedly admitted to The Athletic that the team used a hidden camera in the field during the 2017 season.
