Hector Olivera found guilty of assault, gets ten days jail time

Hector Olivera was found guilty, Braves fans just want to forget he was ever a Brave

Hector Olivera’s tenure with the Atlanta Braves is among the most disappointing ones in recent memory. Not only was he a disappointment on the field, which while tough is acceptable given that this is a GAME we follow so closely, but his domestic violence arrest earlier this year put front and center that he was also potentially a disappointment at best as a human being.

After he was suspended for most of the season, the Braves sent Olivera to the Padres in exchange for Matt Kemp more or less and Olivera was immediately DFAed while he awaited trial for the charges against him.
