    Urbina in jail

    Tuesday, December 13, 2005, 08:14 AM EST [MLB]

    Everyone seen the picture of him on the front page of ESPN.com? It looks like a clip from a WWE wrestling skit: the microphone, the haggard-looking guy in the black trucker hat. "Clubber, what's your prediction for the fight?" Seriously, this is one of the weirdest stories in recent sports history. First his mom gets kidnapped, then they rescue her, then he gets accused of taking a machete to some serfs living on his property. It's straight out of a Cormac McCarthy book. Urbina submarined my fantasy baseball team on more than occasion, but that doesn't mean I like seeing him in a Venezuelan jail. Now, Mike Lowell would be a different story.
