Though Vazquez has not yet gone to trial, the charges are serious and frightening. Hopefully, both for Vazquez and for the alleged victim, Vazquez did not commit these crimes, as he is one of the most promising relievers in the game with an outgoing personality that could be good for the game.
But if he is guilty, then the Dodgers seem to have averted a disaster that could potentially have disrupted the clubhouse and their dismantled their playoff chemistry quite easily. For the Pirates, they may already have seen their star reliever damaging team chemistry.
