If the past year feels like complete chaos, imagine being a fan of the Houston Astros.
One year ago — Jan. 13, 2020 — the Astros officially became one of baseball’s biggest black eyes. It was that day that MLB issued its findings from the Astros cheating investigation, the day manager A.J. Hinch and GM Jeff Luhnow were suspended by the league and then fired completely by Astros owner Jim Crane.
The details, the punishments, the reactions from fans, it closed a chapter on a baseball soap opera unlike any we’d seen before.
