New Mets manager Carlos Beltran was among those who played a “key role in devising the sign-stealing system” the Astros used in 2017, reports Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic.
According to Rosenthal, Red Sox manager Alex Cora — who was the Astros’ bench coach in 2017 while Beltran was a player in what was the final season of his career — was among the other members of the Astros to play a “key role” in the sign-stealing.
Rosenthal added that MLB’s investigation into the Astros is “virtually certain” to include interviews with current manager A.J. Hinch, Cora, and Beltran.
