Cleveland Guardians pitcher Luis Ortiz is free on bond after pleading not guilty to taking bribes.
Ortiz appeared in federal court in New York City Wednesday and pleaded not guilty to numerous charges.
He and teammate Emmanuel Clase were arrested recently after being accused of taking bribes to help gamblers win bets based on pitches the players threw.
Clase will be arraigned on similar charges later today.
