Two Cleveland Guardians pitchers face federal charges in an alleged betting scheme where prosecutors say they intentionally threw balls for bribes from sports bettors.
CLEVELAND, Ohio — In 2023, Emmanuel Clase not only was on his way to becoming the Guardians ’ all-time saves leader, he also was giving insider information to gamblers on when he would throw rigged pitches during games, federal prosecutors say.
The pressure is on for Daniel Espino to finally break through and play games for the Cleveland Guardians. He just recently was named the Fall League All-Star due to incredible play and now is trending upward for the organization.
