Luis Ortiz and Emmanuel Clase have both been indicted for spot fixing in Brooklyn today.
Two games in June, each paid $5000 each for Ortizto throw an intentional ball in one game, $7000 in another.
It is time for Federal authorities to close down all prop-bet Daily Fantasy, because if you think that's the extent of it...
According to Spotrac: Ortiz was being paid about $800,000. Clase? $4.9 million.
There is ZE and RO chance this doesn't involve full-out game-rigging. This is just what they have so far.
But please tell me why I should believe otherwise when you literally have a pitcher (Clase) making $5 mil a year on a MASSIVE contract throwing it all away for $12,000... And he was gonna make $6.4 million this year with two $10 million club options
MLB, you got more to find -- a LOT MORE, and that's just on these two.
Edit to add 7:35 PM PST: Now word is they've found suspicious patterns dating back three seasons!
