A judge has ruled a letter must be unsealed that could potentially link then-Yankees and now-Phillies to stealing signs in 2015 and 2016.

Since the Philadelphia Phillies last played a regular season game, they have added several former members of the New York Yankees organization.

To name a few, a scouting director, shortstop, and even manager: Brian Barber, Didi Gregorius and Joe Girardi, respectively. And, former Yankees who donned red pinstripes in 2019 include bench coach Rob Thomson and reliever David Robertson.
