JUST NOW: Baltimore Orioles Star Gunnar Henderson Suspended Because…
In a shocking development, Baltimore Orioles star shortstop Gunnar Henderson has been suspended indefinitely by Major League Baseball following what officials are calling a “violation of league policies involving unauthorized use of performance-enhancing technology.”
According to sources close to the situation, Henderson was allegedly found using AI-assisted pitch prediction software during games, a tool reportedly developed to anticipate opposing pitchers’ strategies in real time — a direct violation of MLB’s technology usage policies.
The league issued a brief statement this afternoon:
“Gunnar Henderson’s use of unapproved technological assistance during active gameplay constitutes a breach of the integrity of the sport. Effective immediately, he is suspended pending a full investigation.”
The Orioles organization has yet to comment officially, though internal sources say the team was “blindsided” by the news and is cooperating with the league.
Henderson, 24, was having an MVP-caliber season, hitting .317 with 28 home runs and leading the AL in slugging. He has not yet released a statement.
