Dodgers' Dave Roberts, Andrew Friedman Comment on Julio Urías After Arrest

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman commented on Sunday's arrest of pitcher Julio Urías on a felony domestic violence charge.

"I was shocked. Everyone was," Roberts said, per Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register. "It is just an extremely unfortunate circumstance for everyone."

Friedman said he told the pitcher he would not be traveling with the team on its current road trip.

"Obviously, extremely disappointing development," Friedman said. "For us right now, it's having him and his representatives resolve this while we're focused on both the near and long term including we've got a game on Thursday that he was the slated starter that we're figuring out contingencies and ways to move forward.
