Reds lose again! Miami with 3 in the 8th and 1 in the 9th to defeat them, 5-4. Love to see it.

Keynan Middleton, the pitcher responsible for the White Sox allegations this past week, pitched against the Sox in Guaranteed Rate last night. Just so happened the scoreboard didn't acknowledge him at all.

I've always been a fan of his as well and had always hoped he'd be a Cub one day. Great to see him resurect his career when it looked like it was fizzling out and he was just hanging on for a while.

Anyone know what was in the social media posts that got Wander Franco in hot water? I've seen a couple stories on it but nothing about the content of the posts.

Young guy and all of the money in the world and he chooses to go with the Epstein and company route. What an idiot.

Good for Nelson. I liked what we saw the last few years, but clearly he wasn't going to get much of a shot here full time.

I don't know what to make of this.... they're saying he was 18 and she was 14 (soon to be 15), so basically a senior in HS and a freshman in HS. He told the family he would stop seeing her until she turned 18. Their families know each other and grew up around each other.
I don't know how true this story is, but damn....

Did the family try and extort money? Why is this coming out?

Kind of relieved to hear this is the case . Age of consent in the DR is apparently 18 , so he could legally be in trouble , but it's not like it's a pervertish pedophile thing , it's two teenagers . As you say it's likened to a senior dating a freshman which does happen and could happen a lot depending on where people live. I'm not saying it's appropriate to date somebody under age when you are 18 , but say they started seeing each other when he was 17 , it's not going to be easy for kids to break apart over a date stamped on a calender.

Did the family try and extort money? Why is this coming out? Franco turned 22 in March, so it makes you wonder why it took 4-5 years for this to come out. His minor league career started in 2018 which means he was 17 maybe 18 at the time so he spent half the year away from home.

Not sure about other states in the US, but there's a 3 year rule (or atleast there used to be) in my state, so a 18 yr old could date a 15 yr old, or a 20 year old could date a 17 yr old, etc.
Messy sounding situation for Wander.
