Duran answers fans question about the 2017 Astros scandal, #Duran #answers #fans #question #Astros #scandal Welcome to OLASMEDIA TV NEWSThis is what we have for you today:
Five years later, MLB players and fans continue to shoot at the 2017 Houston Astros.
The ’17 World Series champions were infamously caught stealing boards illegally, resulting in the year-long suspension of then-manager AJ Hinch, bench coach Alex Cora and front office manager Jeff Luhnow. As much as the organization has tried to put the scandal in the rearview mirror, it remains a punchline to this day.
These troubling Red Sox stats highlight the team’s most glaring problem
Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran is the latest player to take the plunge in the Astros. At a recent game, a fan asked Duran to raise his left hand if the 2017 Astros were cheaters and his right hand if they were “legitimate.”
He didn’t hesitate to raise his left hand.
Duran’s take on the Astros scandal is unbiased. In 2017, the 25-year-old played for Long Beach State and for the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape Cod League. Of course, that doesn’t stop Astros fans from pointing out that the Red Sox is for a own sign-stealing scandal in 2018.
Things can get awkward when that video makes its way into the Red Sox clubhouse. Cora, now the Red Sox manager, was fired from Boston shortly after his involvement in the scandal came to light. He was rehired as the Sox skipper after the 2020 season.
