Report: FBI investigation into Cardinals still ongoing, team cooperating

By Chris Brown – STL Baseball Today

Nearly four weeks after CNN reported that the federal investigation into the Cardinals front office employees’ alleged illegal access of the Houston Astros database had concluded and was simply awaiting action by the local U.S. attorney’s office in Houston, Cardinals Chairman Bill DeWitt Jr. told Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch on Wednesday that the team is continuing to cooperate with what is still an ongoing investigation.

“We continue to cooperate fully, in whatever way we’re asked,” DeWitt told Goold. “We don’t have a sense of the timing or where things stand at this point.”

DeWitt also said that the team has continued to provide investigators on the case any information that has been requested.

Along with the federal investigation, the Cardinals are also conducting their own internal probe into the alleged illegal access. The team fired scouting direct Chris Correa earlier this month in relation to that investigation.
