While this immediately has drawn comparisons to Spygate and NFL controversies, it may actually be much worse. It's being called the first case of corporate espionage wherein a pro sports team hacks anothers' secure files.
This latest report is connected to the leak of internal Astros documents that surfaced on the web last year. An investigation was launched soon thereafter and in a surprising twist the FBI's findings led them to the Cardinals:
The New York Times report prompted this statement from MLB:Believing that the Astros’ network had been compromised by a rogue hacker, Major League Baseball notified the F.B.I., and the authorities in Houston opened an investigation. Agents soon found that the Astros’ network had been entered from a computer at a home that some Cardinals officials had lived in. The agents then turned their attention to the team’s front office.
I wonder what MLB will do if the allegations are proven? Will they fine the St Louis Cardinals? Will they demand that the manager of St Louis be fired? Will heads roll or what? hahahaha This is a hot ass mess. Why would you hack someone from your house? That is just so stupid!!! Dont they know you have to go to the public library or buy a burner phone with Internet and do it? Dayum!!! That's just really really stupid!!! You are basically asking to get caught. Wow!“Major League Baseball has been aware of and has fully cooperated with the federal investigation into the illegal breach of the Astros’ baseball operations database. Once the investigative process has been completed by federal law enforcement officials, we will evaluate the next steps and will make decisions promptly.”
