Emmanuel Clase’s Lawyer: ‘Innocent of All Charges’ After Betting Indictment

Indicted in Brooklyn over an alleged pitch-fixing scheme, Clase’s attorney said, “Emmanuel is innocent of all charges and looks forward to clearing his name.” Prosecutors allege payouts of $5,000 on June 15, 2025 and $7,000 on June 27, with gamblers netting ~$450,000. Fellow Guardian Luis Ortiz was arrested; both face up to 65 years as MLB’s investigation continues.
