Blue Jays: Roberto Osuna intends to plead not guilty to assault charge

The league also extended Roberto Osuna‘s administrative leave yet again this time until June 25th, however, the closer is not due back in court until July 09th. Basile indicated to the media that he expects the MLB to hold off on any discipline against Osuna until the criminal proceedings are complete.

Osuna has been scarce around the ballpark since the incident was made public but he has been back and forth to Florida where he has been working out at the Blue Jays training facility in Dunedin.

The court case has many layers and severe ramifications for the 23-year old native of Mexico who could have his immigration status revoked if found guilty.
