 The reference to Vander Franco being investigated for an alleged relationship with a minor has resulted in a denial by the 22-year-old Tampa Bay Rays shortstop. According to the latest reports, Franco's chances of ever playing in Major League Baseball again could be slim to none, based on the results of this investigation by a department focused on minors and gender violence in his native Dominican Republic.


Las primeras acusaciones del incidente aparecieron el domingo, cuando Franco fue retirado de la alineación de los Rays antes de un juego contra los Guardias de Cleveland.MLB has launched an investigation into the matter, and an investigation is being conducted by a department specializing in minors and gender violence in Franco's native Dominican Republic.



Franco has denied the allegation, but according to reports, it could have an impact on his baseball career. Dominican journalist Héctor Gómez shared a quote on social media in which he suggested that Franco's chances of ever playing in MLB again may be slim, especially as the allegations against him are under investigation.



Franco began his career at the age of 16 by joining the Tampa Bay Rays. He signed a $182 million contract through 2021, which marked a record deal for any cricketer in Major League Baseball.



Meanwhile, a prosecutor referred to the specific investigation regarding the incident, which is being investigated by MLB's National Agency for Boys, Girls, Adolescents and Family and Gender Violence Unit. Despite the rumblings of the investigation, it is still in its early stages and will be presided over by Judge Olga Dina Laverias.

Franco was placed on the restricted list by the Rays on Monday, leaving him alone in the playoff race for six games. The investigation into Franco's allegations is ongoing and may impact the future prospects of his baseball career.
