MLB Investigates David Fletcher for Alleged Gambling Ties

The former Angels infielder is under scrutiny for betting through the same illegal bookmaker linked to Shohei Ohtani's ex-interpreter.

  • David Fletcher, now with the Braves' Triple-A team, allegedly placed bets on non-baseball sports.
  • The bookmaker involved is also implicated in a $17 million theft case involving Ohtani's former interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara.
  • MLB's investigation hinges on cooperation from law enforcement due to a lack of direct evidence.
  • Fletcher's friend, Colby Schultz, reportedly bet on baseball games, including those Fletcher played in.
  • Fletcher can continue playing during the investigation but faces potential fines or suspension depending on findings.
