The Tampa Bay Rays' star shortstop Wander Franco will find out his status Monday as Major League Baseball investigates allegations that he had an inappropriate relationship with a minor.
The attorney general’s office in the Dominican Republic has since acknowledged there have been allegations from at least two minors.It’s possible the Rays and Franco could agree to extend his restricted list stay, but we could also see the MLB take over matters and place Franco on administrative leave until the investigation is completed. MLB can impose administrative leave without Franco or the union’s approval for seven days.
With indications that both investigations are ongoing, and no final decisions are imminent, Franco is expected to stay idled, away from the team and out of the public eye.
