The reason there's an investigation into the
Astros in the first place. If it weren't for bets made against the Astros or
Red Sox, there would be no investigation. Two teams that were supposed to
get beat didn't get beat, and people are making demands about it now.
Sports betting is the reason for the cheating investigations, if nobody lost any money, there wouldn't be stories about scandals. Somebody feels the
Astros and
Red Sox owe them for money they lost on their
bets.
