I was wondering why he hadn't been on the field. This is why:

He's appealing the decision. No specifics on allegations other than potential violation of the sports gambling rules.

Hoberg said he deleted the messages simply because he was embarrassed by the frequency and volume of his legal non-baseball betting activity.
