\n Quite a few Yankees took swings at their rival Astros over Houston\u2019s illegal sign-stealing scandal this winter, but now they\u2019re getting a taste of their own medicine.<\/p>\n

Astros shortstop Carlos Correa mocked Aaron Judge on Saturday after a U.S. District Court Judge ordered the unsealing of a letter sent from MLB commissioner Rob Manfred to the Yankees in 2017, when the ball club was fined an undisclosed amount for what the league deemed the improper use of a bullpen phone during a previous season.<\/p>\n

Online baseball gamblers from DraftKings say the 3-year-old private letter includes information that would implicate the Yankees in a far-greater scandal. The unsubstantiated claim is tied into an app<\/a>eal filed by the the gamblers, whose lawsuit that alleged the more-recent Astros and Red Sox sign-stealing scandals created an unfair wagering platform was tossed in April.<\/p>\n

\u201cWait\u2026 what? \u2026.?\u201d Correa tweeted Saturday, mirroring a tweet sent out by Judge in November after former Astros pitcher Mike Fiers blew the whistle on the Astros\u2019 illegal sign-stealing.<\/p>\n

Judge\u2019s initial tweet was seen by many as having a sarcastic tone, as the Astros had long-been suspected of illegal sign-stealing among players before Fiers came out.<\/p>\n

Astros stars Josh Reddick and Lance McCullers Jr. also tweeted GIFs poking fun at the Yankees development, though the gamblers\u2019 allegations against the Yankees are not nearly as strong as the case was against the Astros, which not only included Fiers but also video evidence.<\/p>\n

In 2017, the Yankees and Red Sox were both fined undisclosed amounts after what the leagued deemed\u00a0the improper use of a bullpen phone and Apple Watch, respectively.<\/p>\n

Manfred wrote in a press release then that the Yankees \u201chad violated a rule governing the use of the dugout phone,\u201d but that the \u201csubstance of the communications [over the phone] was not a violation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sources told The Post\u2019s Ken Davidoff that the letter concerns the alleged sign-stealing the Yankees did via a replay monitor, which former Yankee Mark Teixeira described to The Post\u2019s Joel Sherman in February.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Teixeira, the former Yankees star from 2009-16, said a few players and coaches used replay monitors to decipher a sequence or indicator and would share it with teammates \u2014 but not in real time like the Astros, adding that this was common practice across the league.<\/p>\n

This all took place before the MLB overhauled its sign-stealing rules with regards to electronics \u2014 which led to Correa and the Astros facing a series<\/a> of punishments this offseason, including the one-year suspensions of their manager and general<\/a> manager, after Manfred confirmed the team used a camera in the outfield to steal signs in 2017 and parts of 2018.<\/p>\n

The Draft Kings \u201cplaintiffs alleged that the 2017 Press Release falsely suggested that the investigation found that the Yankees had only engaged in a minor technical infraction, whereas, according to plaintiffs, the investigation had in fact found that the Yankees engaged in a more serious, sign-stealing scheme,\u201d U.S. District Court Judge Jed Rakoff wrote in an order Friday, according to The Athletic.<\/p>\n

The Yankees argue the release of the letter would cause \u201csignificant reputational injury,\u201d according to Rakoff, for they possibly fear it would unfairly implicate them into baseball\u2019s darkest cheating scandal.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not doing this to cover up some smoking gun,\u201d a Yankees official told The Athletic.<\/p>\n

In a statement to the Athletic, Yankees lawyer Jonathan Schiller wrote \u201cthere is no justification for public disclosure of the letter. The plaintiff has no case anymore, and the court held that what MLB wrote in confidence was irrelevant to the court\u2019s dismissal of the plaintiff\u2019s case. Under established law, this supports the Yankees\u2019 right to confidentiality required by the Commissioner of Baseball.\u201d<\/p>\n

Schiller told The Athletic the findings in question were regarding issues that happened in 2015 and 2016, a season in which Judge played 27 game<\/a>s.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is the Yankees\u2019 understanding that the press release about the investigation reflects the Commissioner\u2019s final determinations,\u201d Schiller said. \u201cThose determinations were that the Yankees had committed a technical violation of MLB\u2019s rules by misusing the dugout phone. The Yankees were not found to have violated any rule involving sign stealing. The press release is accurate and states MLB\u2019s conclusions.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Yankees and MLB reportedly have until noon on Monday to submit a \u201cminimally redacted version of the letter.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
