Do you play fantasy baseball? A Florida man wants you to join his class action lawsuit against MLB, the Astros, and the Red Sox over the cheating scandal.
Christoper Clifford claims that sports bettors were victimized by the cheating teams, and that MLB turned a blind eye towards their conduct for years.
The suit is seeking compensation for anyone who played fantasy baseball through sites like DraftKings or FanDuel between 2017 and 2019.
