BA had him at #3 last year (behind Bumgarner and Posey in that order) and he likely would have been #3 or #4 this season (behind Posey, Bumgarner and possibly Wheeler).

 

He received a $2.1 million bonus when he signed out of the Dominican a few years ago!

Wow, what a devastating few months for their farm; first that idiotic trade and now this.

This could be another Juan Uribe incident, but still, the allegations in and of themselves are pretty damn crazy.

Villalona is going to plead innocent
