Are we just glossing over the unheard of stupidity of having 20m contract and illustrious pro career, and risking it for 5k and 7k bets?
I thought rozier risking it for 200k-1m sums was (Please Use More Appropriate Word), but wtf is this?

Seems like a waste of time and legal resources to protect some degenerate gamblers from losses on the most ridiculous wagers out there. These sports leagues are sleeping with dogs and surprised when they're infested with fleas.
A big reason the Guardians were eliminated in the playoffs last season was due to Clase's sudden struggles to hold a lead ... for all know he could have been throwing games.
