Former major league players Luis Castillo and Octavio Dotel have been accused of involvement in drug trafficking and money laundering
Over the last 10 games, the Los Angeles Angels’ Justin Upton has shown signs of putting a monthlong slump behind him.“The truth is my country no longer works, my God, do you think that after making millions of dollars in Baseball I am going to dirty my hands with drugs?” the former player wrote.Castillo was a three-time All-Star, won three Gold Gloves and was a member of the 2003 Marlins team that won the World Series. Castillo made $56.
There was no immediate comment from Dotel, who set a record for playing on more MLB teams than any other player. The teams were: the Detroit Tigers, St. Louis Cardinals, Toronto Blue Jays, Colorado Rockies, Los Angeles Dodgers, Pittsburgh Pirates, Chicago White Sox, Atlanta Braves, Kansas City Royals, New York Yankees, Oakland Athletics, Houston Astros and New York Mets. Dotel earned $41.1 million during a 15-year career that ended in 2013.
