“The league continues to gather all relevant evidence in our investigation,” an MLB spokesperson said this week.
For now, Urías has not played again since being placed on administrative leave at the end of the 2023 season.
“The players’ union and Urías’ agent, Scott Borashave also declined to comment, leaving everything to the league’s investigation.

This is not the first time that Urías has been involved in these events. Marca says that “in 019, he was arrested at the Beverly Center in Los Angeles for an incident in which witnesses claimed that he pushed his wife in a parking lot. Although no charges were filed, Urías agreed to participate in a treatment program and was suspended for 20 games by the MLB.”
