ST. LOUIS -- The first casualty from "Hackgate" was claimed Thursday, and it was the man who oversaw the St. Louis Cardinals' amateur draft less than a month ago.
Scouting director Chris Correa was fired for his actions in a computer hacking incident of the Houston Astros' database that occurred last year. The 34-year old Correa rose through the St. Louis system after being hired in 2009 and became the club's scouting director in December 2014.
