MIKE FIERS: "WE CHEATED AS A TEAM"

Hey, if you win as a team you lose as a team. And last time I checked, if you're the Astros, no doubt you cheat as a team too.

That's what the hero in this, now A's pitcher Mike Fiers has to say. NBC Sports here:

"When asked Sunday by the San Francisco Chronicle's Susan Slusser if he wants to respond to Astros shortstop Carlos Correa saying Fiers "should be man enough" to say Houston second baseman Jose Altuve didn't use the team's trash can method, the A's pitcher declined to comment. But he did add one quote as he walked away. "We [the Astros] cheated as a team," Fiers said to Slusser."

Something to think about as we are definitely sure this story is NOT going away any time soon.
