The Dukes debacle 

Post#1 » by PhilipNelsonFan » Thu May 24, 2007 6:51 am

Honestly, if you're Devil Rays management, what do you do? This guy's record isn't exactly spotless, domestic abuse turns off fans quicker than a bad GM's moves, and the Rays can't really afford to lose his production.

No word yet if he's facing anything serious, much less a conviction, but how should they deal with it?

6 arrests in the last 4 years, not counting this one. Marijuana possession, assault, battery, obstruction of a police officer, domestic violence. This guy gives Pacman Jones a run for his money. Did I mention that his dad murdered a crack dealer for selling bad crack to his mom?
