Cleveland Guardians pitchers Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz will remain on nondisciplinary paid leave «until further notice» while a gambling investigation continues, Major League Baseball announced Sunday.
MLB said in a statement Sunday that the league and players’ association had agreed to extend the leaves of Clase and Ortiz, adding, «We will not comment further until the investigation has been completed.»
The investigation stems from unusual betting interest in individual pitches by Ortiz in two Guardians games in June.
