Atlanta Braves' infielder David Fletcher is playing in the minor leagues as MLB investigates his involvement in illegal gambling activities with bookie Mathew Bowyer, connected to the scandal involving Ippei Mizuhara and Shohei Ohtani. Fletcher reportedly made bets on sports with Bowyer, including games involving his close friend Colby Schultz, a former minor leaguer who placed bets on baseball. MLB's investigation is expected to rely on information from law enforcement, and Fletcher can refuse to cooperate if it could lead to criminal investigation. Despite his involvement in the scandal, Fletcher's performance has declined, and he is currently serving as organizational depth with the Braves.
