Ya know, if you’re going to put 21 pounds of methamphetamine (and another 1.2 lbs of oxycodone for good measure) in your car and drive around, best to stay in your lane and not crank up the engine to find some extra speed. Right? Unfortunately, that is not what Cubs prospect Jesus Camargo did in Eagle County, Colorado (elevation 6,601 feet, so yes, it is a mile high, by the way) last Wednesday.

After driving erratically while drifting back and forth in different lanes going way too fast, Camargo was pulled over and subsequently arrested for Class 1 and 4 drug felonies when officers sniffed out a duffel bag of drugs and cash in the back seat and trunk.
