Houston Astros Dismiss Team Manager, General Manager Over Sign-Stealing Scandal

Houston Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow, shown here during the 2019 World Series, has been fired by team owner Jim Crane.

MLB ordered the team to pay a fine of $5 million — the highest amount allowable under league rules. The Astros also will forfeit first- and second-round selections in player drafts in 2020 and 2021.
