It’s now just over a week since MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred dropped the hammer on the Houston Astros for their sign-stealing behavior in 2017. Since the report and subsequent penalties were made public the baseball world has heard from anyone and everyone that’s ever stepped on a diamond. The Red Sox recently held its annual Winter Weekend event and the topic came up with some of the players.
One of the members of the club that spoke about the matter was former Astro and current Boston slugger J.D. Martinez. The DH gave his thoughts on his former club as well as his former teammate Mike Fiers and his actions.
