Blue Jays: Roberto Osuna Arrested for Assault on a Woman

Roberto Osuna was released early this morning from a Toronto Police station under his own recognizance. The trial date for Osuna has been set for Monday June 18, 2018.

Major League Baseball has taken immediate action and placed the closer on administrative leave as they investigate the situation. Major League Baseball holds the power, based on an agreement signed in 2015, to suspend Osuna without criminal conviction. The length of suspension is not regimented and is decided by Major League Baseball at the end of their investigation.

Under Major League Baseball policy, Osuna may remain under administrative leave for seven days while they investigate the matter and determine further punishment.
