FBI Struggles to identify culprit in Houston Astros’ Hacking Case

The FBI is accusing the St. Louis Cardinals’ front office of illegally gaining access to another team’s computer to steal information about players and potential trades.
But there’s one problem, the New York Times reports: Agents are having trouble determining who specifically did the deed.
The investigation has narrowed in on a group of Cardinals employees whose expertise is statistics and computer programming.
According to the Times, at least four employees of baseball operations for the Cardinals have hired defense lawyers.
Agents have determined that the digital intruders had access to a computer near the team’s complex in Jupiter, Fla.
