Twenty-two-year veteran Dusty Baker has decided it’s a good idea for him to take the Houston Astros managerial job. Signing a one-year deal with an option for 2021, Baker will also get the opportunity to manage the AL All-Star team this July because the Astros are the reigning American League champs. However, that’s preposterous, and not just because this is a Yankees blog.
By now, the entire world knows that the Astros cheated their way to a World Series title in 2017 — and evidence leads many to believe that they may have continued their sign-stealing scheme during last year’s postseason run.
