Cardinals hitting coach Jeff Albert, who worked in the Astros organization from 2013-18, said he was neither involved with nor aware of Houston’s sign-stealing scheme while he was with the club.

Albert addressed the media on Wednesday afternoon with his first public comments since the 2017 Astros were implicated in a report by the Office of the Commissioner. Cardinal spring training action on KJEL starts a week from tomorrow in Jupiter, Florida with the Grapefruit League opener at 12:05 against the Mets…..
