Suspended for one year for gambling back in ‘21 and ‘22. Damn shame. Might cost him his career at 26 years old. Another dude just got a lifetime ban. MLB is taking this pretty seriously - unless your name is Ohtani.

Here are some excerpts from an article on him.
"According to Major League Baseball, Saalfrank placed a total of $445.87 worth of bets — 28 of them MLB-related, the other a college baseball parlay — on games between Sept. 9, 2021, and March 9, 2022."
"Saalfrank did not appear in any of the games on which he bet, the league reported, adding that he also did not bet on any games involving his team."
"At the time the bets were placed, Saalfrank would have been recovering from Tommy John surgery."
