Franco was placed on the restricted list as the allegations surfaced earlier this month
Tampa Bay Rays star Wander Franco was placed on administrative leave as Major League Baseball investigates the shortstop’s alleged relationship with underage girls.
"Per an agreement between MLB and the MLBPA, Wander Franco has been placed on Administrative Leave until further notice as MLB continues its ongoing investigation," the league said Tuesday. "The administrative leave, effective immediately, is not disciplinary under the Joint Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Policy. We will comment further at the appropriate time."
