Cleveland Guardians rocked by betting scandal as reliever Emmanuel Clase faces potential lifetime ban, casting a shadow over MLB’s integrity. Sports lawyer Dan Lust joins Brian McKeon and Stacey Gotsulias to break down the real risk of 65-year jail sentences, why plea deals are likely, and how Rob Manfred’s response could reshape the league’s future. Are gambling scandals more rampant than leagues want to admit—and will new tech catch even more athletes and referees bending the rules?

Key topics include MLB’s looming CBA and TV deal negotiations, the precedent set by the Black Sox and Pete Rose, and whether banishing players like Clase could actually protect baseball’s image. Plus: What’s next for top Yankees prospect Jason Dominguez after an up-and-down rookie campaign? Can the Yankees maximize his potential in the outfield, or will roster priorities stall his rise? Don’t miss this frank look at sports betting’s impact on America’s pastime.
