    This does not look good at all. If everything is all true, man alive, what a catastrophic fall from grace. I feel terrible for the Rays organization, the players and the fans, not their owner. Their owner is a cheap ass. But if all of this is correct and he's guilty of a crime, I do wonder if the Rays ever pay out a big deal ever again. If he is guilty, I hope he never plays a game again. If he is found innocent much like Trevor Bauer, I wish him the best at getting back on track. But if true...just why? You had it all, and you threw it away for a minor. Sorry for the long somewhat rambly comment, I just had a lot to say. Thanks for the video PB and happy 2024!

      There's a chance that his contract could be terminated by the morality clause that's standard in all MLB contracts. The players union doesn't like to see contracts terminated, though. Most likely there would be some sort of negotiation between lawyers where the Rays can pay a portion of what's owed and void the contract, rather than the morality clause being used.
