MLB pitcher Julio Urías, a former Dodger and World Series champion, was suspended through this year’s All-Star break for violations of MLB policy.
Julio Urías, a World Series champion with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2020 and a former NL wins and ERA leader, was suspended through this year’s All-Star break for violating MLB’s domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse policy, Commissioner Rob Manfred announced Friday.
Urías‘ agent, Scott Boras, said the pitcher was not releasing any statements.
The 28-year-old left-handed pitcher has not played since Sept. 1, 2023.
Urías pleaded no contest in May to one count of misdemeanor domestic battery. The penalty was the second for Urías under the policy after a 20-game suspension in 2019. MLB said he will be reinstated from the restricted list July 17.
He was arrested Sept. 3, 2023, outside BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, where he had attended a Major League Soccer game.
