Saunders | Major League Baseball needs to be careful about where it walks because it’s nearing a slippery slope concerning sports gambling.
There’s a lot of money to be made via gambling, and MLB, its partners, and its players aren’t about to miss out on the jackpot.
“We see it primarily as a form of increasing fan engagement. It’s an additional way for our fans to interact with the game,” Manfred said. “I do think in-game betting is going to be a significant component. I think if you talk to people who are experts in the field, that they don’t see outcome betting as a major growth area.
And yet Rose, now 81, is still banned from even being considered for the Hall of Fame. Suspected steroid users Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens at least got the chance to be on the ballot for 10 years. MLB, as it must, still prohibits players from betting on baseball, but Rose argues that he’s been punished long enough.“However, I would wish baseball would just give me an opportunity to be on the ballot. Not, put me in, let the writers decide. I’ve been suspended since ’89, 33 years ago. That’s a long time. And to be honest with you, it probably cost me $100 million.I think he’s right. Allow the Baseball Writers’ Association of America to vote on Rose.
