MLB Gambling Scandal: Federal charges filed against Guardians’ Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz!

Today’s word of the day is ‘solidarity’ as in standing together as in my family. I shaved my head. Let me explain why. Two Cleveland Guardians pitchers have been indicted on federal charges over pitch rigging. Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz have been charged in an illegal gambling and money laundering conspiracy. Oh boy. President Trump update time. Trump went to the Commanders – Lions game yesterday. Only the 3rd sitting President to do so. Let’s chat about some things he’s done and said recently. Review: The Smashing Machine. We begin Hour 2 with MLB qualifying offers. The MLB season never truly ends. We go from World Series right into free agency. These qualifying offers are one-year deals offered by teams and some big names got them extended to them. Kyle Schwarber, Kyle Tucker, Shota Imanga, Bo Bichette, Edwin Diaz, and more! Paul DePodesta is back in baseball. Leaving the Cleveland Browns for the Colorado Rockies. Yes, the moneyball man, is back. The Rockies hired him as the president of baseball operations, will it work? Don Mattingly is leaving the Blue Jays. He was the bench coach there for a few seasons.Another Japanese star is headed to MLB. Munetaka Murakami is coming. He is the Japanese baseball league home run king. NPPOD. Marshawn Kneeland died from suicide last week. Just two days after he scored a touchdown for the Dallas Cowboys. Just sad. Big Ten investments. Hmm.
