#BREAKING: The US Department of Justice has launched an investigation into MLB insider Jeff Passan’s coverage of the LA Dodgers, per sources.
I’m told Passan has been aware of the Dodger’s financial fraud for years, but has failed to report it to the authorities. Now, the DOJ is looking to file charges of misprision of a felony against Passan.
Sources say that a monetary payoff by the Dodgers may have been in play to keep Passan silent.
Since this, Joshua Báez has homered two more times. Three major league plate appearances, three home runs -- the first player in big league history to go deep three times in his first game. One to left, one to center, one to right. Best debut for a hitter in big league history.
