Julio Urías, beginning pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers, was arrested and charged with felony home violence Sunday night time, in response to Jeff Passan of ESPN.
Los Angeles County jail data present that Urías was arrested round 11 p.m. PT, and was booked into jail at 1:05 a.m. He was launched at 4:47 a.m. on $50,000 bond. No different particulars concerning the arrest can be found, although now we have a good suggestion the place Urías was on Sunday night time: at BMO Stadium watching LAFC tackle Lionel Messi and Inter Miami.
The Dodgers launched a brief assertion concerning Urías’ arrest.
“We’re conscious of an incident involving Julio Urías. Whereas we try to study all of the information, he won’t be touring with the staff. The group has no additional remark presently.”
MLB has but to remark, although they’ll doubtless start investigating Urías quickly. Throughout that course of, gamers are sometimes positioned on administrative depart, that means they don’t play or journey with the staff, however nonetheless obtain their wage and repair time.
Urías, 27, has been with the Dodgers his total profession, and this isn’t the primary time he is been arrested on suspicion of home violence. He was arrested in Might 2019 in a car parking zone in Los Angeles after witnesses advised police that they noticed him push a girl to the bottom. Although safety footage reportedly supported what the witnesses noticed, the lady Urías was with advised police that she fell. The L.A. metropolis lawyer declined to press costs, deciding as a substitute to defer them so long as Urías attended a 52-week home violence counseling program and wasn’t arrested for a violent crime within the subsequent 12 months (the size of the statute of limitations).
Whereas costs weren’t pressed in 2019, that is not the identical as an expungement. Urías’ arrest for home violence nonetheless exists within the public document, as does the police report.
And so does his MLB suspension. Commissioner Rob Manfred suspended Urías 20 video games in 2019 as self-discipline for violating the MLB/MLBPA joint coverage on home violence, sexual assault, and little one abuse. If MLB sees match to droop Urías for this incident, it is doable it could possibly be longer than 20 video games since this might be his second documented violation.
Urías is scheduled to seem in courtroom Sept. 27 at 8:30 a.m.
