Fernando Tatis Jr. Sues Big League Advance To Void Deal At Age 17 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Jun 24, 2025 4:05 am

Padres star Fernando Tatis Jr. filed a lawsuit Monday against Big League Advance in an attempt to void the future earnings contract he signed as a 17-year-old minor leaguer that could cost him $34 million.

The lawsuit, filed in San Diego County Superior Court, accuses BLA of using predatory tactics to lure him into an \"investment deal\" that was actually an illegal loan. BLA misrepresented itself to Tatis, hiding its unlicensed status and pushing him into loan terms banned by California\'s consumer protection laws, the suit alleges.
