A video has surfaced online that suggests that MLB might be on to something with its decision to send Emmanuel Clase on leave.
The Cleveland Guardians confirmed that their All-Star closer has been placed on non-disciplinary paid leave as part of the league’s ongoing investigation into sports betting violations.
The decision comes at a crucial period, with the trade deadline approaching and the 27-year-old drawing interest from other teams.
His departure follows that of Guardians teammate Luis Ortiz, who has also been placed on leave this month. However, MLB has not confirmed that the situations are connected.
A clip of Clase has surfaced online showing him blasting a first pitch into the ground against the Kansas City Royals at the top of the ninth inning, with the posting account stating they were “Just speculating, but this how Luis Ortiz got flagged.”

The Los Angeles Dodgers were reportedly among interested teams for Clase and were understood to be exploring a deal for the closer which would include Steven Kwan.
Cade Smith is expected to take over as closer for the 52-53 Guardians, with the team’s bullpen depth now set to be tested following the exits of two star pitchers.
The league has stepped up its investigation into sports betting as investigations have turned up key findings across multiple sports.
Clase’s leave isn’t disciplinary, but it’s leave all the same and suggests that MLB is treading cautiously while trying to gather all the facts.
The probe’s outcome might be far off, and the Guardians are scrambling. But there could be an opportunity to change their fortunes before the trade deadline.
