MLB suspended Emmanuel Clase over gambling allegations and Pete Rose became baseball’s ultimate cautionary tale.
Now an active MLB player is partnering with a prediction market that MLB is reportedly considering a league-wide deal with.
You can understand why people might have questions about that.
Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. has partnered with Kalshi, making him the first MLB player to venture into prediction markets.
Kalshi is also reportedly in talks with MLB for a leaguewide deal.

If I had a nickel for every time a baseball hit a roof and then bounced down into a glove for an out in a 2026 Division Series Postseason game, I'd have two nickels.
Which isn't a lot, but it's crazy it happened twice.

11 years sober! One of the best decisions I ever made on this day in 2015. Grateful for everyone who has supported me along the way to regain control and wake up every day a better version of myself as a father, husband, and friend. For anyone out there battling, just know you’re not alone and please speak up. There is a light at the end of the tunnel 🙏🏾

Pokémon YouTubers welcomed Logan Paul arms wide into the community and here we are. Gave a mouse a cookie and now the mouse found a new way to squeeze money out of Pokémon fans! And of course every update about the probable sponsor Modretro gets worse and worse

Stop caring or having an opinion about rehab game stat lines. These guys haven’t played in months. If they get hits, cool, if they punch out, cool… it means nothing. It’s all about testing the body (injury), and finding your timing, and getting back into game shape.

Both Rendon and Strasburg signed 7-year $245 million deals after the Nats won in 2019.
They both expire this year.
In the end they will have combined to have missed 1,799 games out of a possible 2,064 games.
$490M, only playing in 12% of the games.
Crazy.
