I remember a guy from the Tigers stealing a belt or belt buckle maybe 4 years ago. Maybe Marcus Thames. Anyway, the guy's salary is $400,000 this year. To never pitch in the minors, he had to get a heck of a signing bonus. He looks like f'in teen wolf in that mugshot.

#43Leake arrested, statement
Reds pitcher Mike Leake was arrested Monday on misdemeanor charges of theft. He did not address media as expected but statements were issued.
Statement From The Cincinnati Reds
“On behalf of the Cincinnati Reds organization, at this time we are advised to not publicly address this matter because of the pending legal proceedings. However, we do not condone behavior of the type alleged, which is wholly inconsistent with the principles of this organization and our community and is detrimental to the positive direction we seek to follow. When the legal process has been completed, we will handle this matter internally.”
Statement On Behalf Of Reds Pitcher Mike Leake
“Today, Mike Leake was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of theft from the Macy’s store downtown. Right now, he has been advised by his attorney to offer no further statements on this matter. This case will proceed in the justice system, where Mike’s story will be told. Until that time, there will be nothing further from Mike on this episode until the court proceedings have concluded. However, Mike wishes to apologize to his family, the fans, Mr. Castellini, Walt, Dusty, his teammates and the entire Reds organization for this distraction.”
Leake is scheduled to pitch on Thursday vs. Arizona, but it is not known yet if he will still make that start. We were told by media relations director Rob Butcher that Leake is at the ballpark tonight and in uniform.Comment -

#46Baseball players always get special music played when they come up to bat.....I fought the law and the law won is too obvious! How bout the 70s song with the lyrics....."Why don't we steal away....why don't we steal away...into the night....we know it ain't right"
Seriously though....Leake doesn't really have a big league arm imo....Yonder Alonso is another 1st round bust but the Reds farm system is so loaded they can shake it off! They'll be right there in September to win the division again!Comment -
