What Emmanuel Clase's cloudy future means for the Guardians; How many wins do the Browns need?
Highlights:
David Campbell and Terry Pluto discuss the implications of Emmanuel Clase being placed on leave due to an MLB betting investigation, which also involves Luis Ortiz.
The ongoing investigation is expected to last until at least August 31, raising concerns about the Guardians' playoff chances.
Emails from fans expressing their discontent with the current state of sports gambling and its impact on players and the integrity of the game.
Pluto emphasizes that sports gambling is different from other forms of gambling, as it appeals to sports fans who believe they can beat the odds.
The conversation touches on the dangers of micro bets, which allow wagering on specific plays, and the potential for exploitation in both professional and college sports.
The Guardians face tough decisions regarding trades, particularly with Carlos Santana and Shane Bieber, as the trade deadline approaches.
Pluto believes the Guardians' season is nearly over, estimating a "95.9% chance" of that outcome.
The discussion includes the potential impact of Clase's absence on the team and the financial implications of his contract if he faces a ban.
The future of players like Shane Bieber, who recently showed promise in a rehab start, and whether he could be trade bait.
Do the Cavs need another "tough guy"? A listener is asking.
How many wins is a "good season" for the 2025 Browns?
