Federal justice officials will meet with Major League Baseball representatives after Washington Nationals pitcher Livan Hernandez’s name surfaced in the trial of a convicted drug dealer in San Juan, P.R. Prosecutors presented evidence that the drug dealer, Angel Ayala Vazquez, had a Porsche, a Lamborghini and a warehouse containing a recording studio, a barber shop and a car repair shop registered in Hernandez’s name.

It's a shame if all of this is true because Livan Hernandez has always been one of my favorite pitchers in baseball. He's Cuban, throws junk, was on the 97 Marlins, is a work horse and has hung around forever. He's even doing alright this year for the Nationals in which he holds a 3.77 era. But this would certainly hurt his recovering reputation (remember he hit an old man with a golf club) if he is found guilty with this. I mean, this would probably result in big jail time if he was helping out a major drug dealer.
All athletes are really dumb to take these risks.
