MLB investigating Marlins pitcher Jarred Cosart over gambling issues.

MLB spokesman Pat Courtney confirmed that the commissioner's office is investigating the matter, which was first reported by the Miami New Times.

It's unclear whether the allegations involving Cosart revolve around baseball betting or sports betting in general. MLB Rule 21 prohibits gambling on baseball.
Cosart is claiming his Twitter account was hacked while MLB wants to know what he was placing bets on and if any involved baseball games.
