    Post Padres player Tucupita Marcano is facing a potential lifetime ban for betting on baseball games

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/ml...g-scandal.html

    San Diego Padres star Tucupita Marcano is facing a potential lifetime ban from MLB for betting on baseball games in 2023, as yet another gambling scandal rocks the sport.

    A league investigation into the 24-year-old Marcano is underway, according to The Wall Street Journal, just months after LA Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani was embroiled in a $17million betting case involving his former interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara.

    Marcano - an infielder - was placed on the injured list by the Pittsburgh Pirates in July of last year and underwent surgery to repair the anterior crucial ligament in his right knee.

    The Padres signed him off waivers in November, but Marcano has yet to play this season, as he still is recovering from surgery.

    Per the WSJ report, Marcano 'has been accused of betting on games involving the Pittsburgh Pirates last season while he was on the injured list for that team.'

    @Davz13 It is really baffling. There is only one rule in baseball that gets you a lifetime ban. He was still pretty young and likely loses out on millions because of this. Even if he just spent minimal time in the majors and the rest in AAA.

    Never heard of him but surprising for sure. Lifetime ban and waste of talent.
