What's that? Being the subject of an all points arrest bulletin from police in his Dominican Republic after a night on the town allegedly ended in a melee at a club and a police major being assaulted?
Well, then.
South Region Police director Juan Ramon de la Cruz Martinez announced the surrender of Vladimir Guerrero Tuesday morning, in connections with an aggression and a brawl in the disco El Punto, in the city Bani Monday night.
The senior officer said he personally arrested two of Guerrero's bodyguards. "No one is above the law. Guerrero and the others will be charged for the incident which left one injured."
The paper reports that "several community leaders and Guerrero's brother Wilton defended the ball player's integrity, and denied that he assaulted a police major" during the brawl. Details are still sparse so we'll have to wait for a fuller version of the story from both sides.
Guerrero was among a group of aging designated hitters that ultimately attracted no interest this spring. The presumable Hall of Fame last played for the Baltimore Orioles in 2011, hitting 13 homers with 63 RBI and a .733 OPS over 145 games.
Make sure you're ready for the season ahead ...
