A-Rod, MLB to discuss involvement in high-stakes poker games
by shf
NEW YORK (FastLaugh.com) — Alex Rodriguez will meet with officials from Major League Baseball investigating his involvement in high-stakes poker games.
MLB will sternly warn him to avoid these allegedly illegal underground poker games with unsavory characters such as Hollywood A-list stars where banned drugs such as deer antler spray were allegely used.
While A-Rod is not facing immediate risk of suspension, this will not be his first warning from MLB. He was previously ordered by baseball to refrain from these poker games despite there being no indication whatsoever that these games were illegal.
MLB’s executive committe is now strongly considering imposing a ban on all card games on team planes and in clubhouses, with the exception of “Go Fish” and “Old Maid.”
