Just like the other guy strange pitch patterns

Have no clue why a guy with a $20 million contract would get caught up in this nonsense

are people betting on balls and strikes? ive seen videos of pitch #1 of each at bat being a BALL and pretty bad, not even close to strike zone

so are people cashing in on betting pitch #1 to be a BALL.....aren't those super low limits anyway??

Organized criminals had something they were holding over him - be it info, a family member or whatever.

Why else would someone get involved in this stupidity ? Problem is they got greedy and started betting too much.

Yes. These two Cleveland pitchers have been suspended because of irregularities in betting on individual pitch ball or strike

Agree not sure how you’d load up on these unless it was the first pitch of the inning so you have more chances to bet in between innings

i kind of agree that being able to bet one pitch like this enables too much of a potential fix

it is one thing to bet a game for its side or total. to be able to bet one single pitch being a ball or strike that really might not effect things opens too many possibilities. even betting the speed is weird. i can see a pitcher doing something to make people money for whatever reason and looking at it like he can then just pitch his normal game.
