Brian Barren, Guardians president of business operations, said that although sports gambling arrived here on Jan. 1, Major League Baseball rules currently prohibit certain types of gambling spaces within the confines of a team’s ballpark.
to be the team’s exclusive mobile sports betting partner, but Barren said the timing of that news was coincidental to the unveiling of the club’s plans for the first major renovations to the ballpark since 2015.“There are limitations, or guardrails around sports betting and for MLB, there are things you can and can’t do as it relates to a sportsbook that you can walk into at the ballpark and place a bet,” Barren said.
Neal Huntington, Guardians special assistant for baseball projects, said the license granted for bet365 was one that allowed mobile and online gaming options, which is different than the Type B license granted to the Cavaliers for a brick and mortar sports gaming space such as the Caesar’s Sportsbook at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.
“We’re looking at potentially partnering with somebody, but it’s got to be outside our gate lines because Major League Baseball does not allow for a physical sportsbook in the ballpark,” Huntington said. “Anything we do will be on the edges of our ballpark.” Asked if the club would look to develop a space outside the ballpark gates, such as in a baseball village experience seen in parks like St. Louis or Texas, Barren said the club’s immediate focus would be on Thursday’s announcement and the timelines that come with it.
“We’ve got a lot of work in front of us on the stuff inside the ballpark,” Barren said. “As we look beyond the ballpark, and certainly the development parcel is a component, we’ll look to do something there that makes the most sense from a fan perspective as well as from a business perspective.”
