Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Julio Urias was arrested and charged with felony domestic assault late on Sunday evening.
He was released early Monday morning on a $50,000 bond.
Urias, a key member of the Dodgers 2020 World Series title, has been in trouble for domestic incidents in the past.
In 2019, he reportedly shoved a female companion to the ground at a shopping mall in Beverly Hills. He was not charged with a crime at that point, but still received a 20-game ban for violation of MLB’s Domestic Violence policy.
It is unclear at this point what type of punishment the 27-year-old is set to face. The expectation is that a sizable suspension is looming.
Urias is set to become a free agent at season’s end, but his MLB career is likely in jeopardy.
