Jason Wood, an MLB agent, was fired by CSE Talent on Wednesday for not upholding the company's "moral and ethical" standards, the agency announced.
According to FanRag Sport's Robert Murray, Wood was accused of filming players who used his shower.
According to Murray, one player found a camera while using the shower at Wood's home before confronting him and firing him.
Wood represented players like Andrew Benintendi of the Boston Red Sox, the Tampa Bay Rays' Jake Odorizzi, the Seattle Mariners' David Phelps, among others. According to Murray, some players have already fired Wood while others plan to do so and hire new representatives.
