Enrique Soto, one of baseball’s most prominent trainers in the Dominican Republic for the last two decades, has been sentenced to 10 years in prison after being convicted of charges of sexually assaulting two boys that were part of his academy 10 years ago, according to a report that first aired Monday night in the Dominican Republic on Noticias Sin.

Better late than never.

The're also letting take a look at the concessions numbers to see if he can find a way to boost profit margins and productivity.

This is great. I've always thought that a player who was interested in a post-playng baseball career should take the opportunity to poke around the entire operation.

Greinke = just another Chad Bradford Wannabe Wannabe

Gotta think this kind of stuff will make him want to stay in Milwaukee.

Or it will make him more attractive to other teams next offseason.

Or it will make him retire and do that lawnmowing/scouting service he's always wanted to do.

So much for the prescribed <bq> tag.

Anyway, more from Greinke on the good face:

Greinke said he thinks he found a diamond in the rough back home in Orlando - a college position player who he indicated was a low-round prospect. "I'm better on position players," he said. "I've been (scouting) since I was drafted, really. Two people I was really wrong on: I thought Prince (Fielder) was going to be too big to hit, and I thought (Dustin) Pedroia was too small to play. But you get proven wrong all the time. You learn from it and hopefully get better. I try not to write people off instantly like I used to."

Interesting since Greinke and Fielder went back-to-back in the draft, and IIRC, the Royals were torn between picking Greinke or Fielder.

For future reference, the tag you want to use is <blockquote>, battlekow.

They also knew each other from high school baseball in Florida.

See, that is why nobody bothers to read directions.
