Tampa Bay Franco is on Indefinite Leave... Suspicion of Inappropriate Relationship With a Minor

Dominican Republic investigation begins... “There is little chance of a comeback this season.”

Wander Franco (22, Tampa Bay Rays), who is being investigated by the Ministry of Justice of the Dominican Republic for allegedly having an inappropriate relationship with a minor, 온라인카지노사이트 was placed on indefinite administrative leave by the Major League Baseball (MLB) Secretariat.

The Associated Press announced the related information on the 23rd (Korean time) and said, "Franco will not be able to participate in games and training during the suspension period.

Administrative leave is not included in formal discipline.

Franco recently sparked controversy after photos of him with a seemingly underage woman surfaced on social media, and some exposed inappropriate privacy.

Accordingly, Franco's home country, the Dominican Republic, launched an investigation, and his team, Tampa Bay, placed him on the restricted list on the 15th.

The MLB Secretariat judged that the investigation process would be lengthy and issued an indefinite administrative leave.

His team, Tampa Bay, is sparing his words.

On the 23rd, Tampa Bay coach Kevin Cash received a related question from local media and said, “I don’t want to comment,” and “Let’s see.”

Infielder Franco is a star player who debuted in the big leagues in 2021 at the age of 20 and grew into a signboard player.

He signed a large contract with Tampa Bay in 2021 for up to 223 million dollars (about 298.7 billion won) for 12 years and a contract period of 12 years.
