Former Dodgers Pitcher Mike Bolsinger Suing Astros Over Sign-Stealing Scandal

The Houston Astros have been at the center of controversy in recent weeks after Major League Baseball determined the organization electronically stole signs over the course of the 2017 season.

Historic punishments were levied by MLB commissioner Rob Manfred at the completion of his three-month investigation, ranging from a $5 million fine, the loss of draft picks, and former general manager Jeff Luhnow and manager A.J. Hinch each being suspended for the entire 2020 season.

The Astros illegally stealing signs has many wondering how differently the postseason would have played out that season under normal circumstances. The Los Angeles Dodgers, of course, fell to the Astros in seven games during the 2017 World Series.
