I really hate all of the gambling ads, tbh. I don’t like how MLB (and even Derek Jeter of all people) have sold out to these gambling/prediction companies. It cheapens the game and normalizes gambling to younger generations.

Same, and Ive been wondering just how much a gambling company can get away with when it comes to these ads. The actual online ads are wayyy more provocative than the TV ads.
