Wander Franco Unlikely To Return Amid MLB Investigation
1 year agoTampa Bay Rays shortstop Wander Franco is currently under investigation in the Dominican Republic for an alleged relationship with a minor, and now it seems he's unlikely to return to MLB. "It will be very unlikely that Franco will play in MLB again, judging by the results of the investigations that are currently being carried out, which directly commit him to the accusations against him," a person very close to the investigations said. The 22-year-old switch-hitter is currently on the league's restricted list, and fantasy managers shouldn't expect him back for the rest of this season while the investigation is carried out. For the foreseeable future, Osleivis Basabe is going to serve as Tampa's primary shortstop.
