Dodgers suspend Erisbel Arruebarrena for remainder of 2016 season

LOS ANGELES -- Embattled Dodgers shortstop Erisbel Arruebarrena has been suspended for the remainder of the season for an unknown reason, the second straight season he has been so disciplined.

"We have suspended Erisbel Arruebarrena for the remainder of the season for his repeated failure to comply with the terms of his contract," said Gabe Kapler, the Dodgers' director of player development.

Arruebarrena, 26, was hitting .182/.224/.400 with four home runs in 17 games with Double-A Tulsa, including 14 starts at shortstop. He last played on Sunday, going 1-for-4 with a home run against Northwest Arkansas.
