ST. LOUIS (AP) Randy Flores said the St. Louis Cardinals surprised him when they asked if he'd be interested in being their new scouting director.
General manager John Mozeliak said Tuesday that the 40-year-old former lefty and member of St. Louis' 2006 World Series championship team impressed the team with his post-baseball pursuits.
Mozeliak said the hire late last week was unrelated to the FBI investigation of hacking in the organization of the Houston Astros' database. The team is also conducting an internal investigation that Mozeliak said was ongoing.
