Will Leyritz continue to catch?

Ok so the title was a bad don't drop the soap prison reference. But it was inspired by the last line of this article. "Leyritz was mostly a catcher during his 11 seasons."

The real news is the boy is in some deep shit. His BAL was .14. If I remember correctly they drew blood which I have heard gives a higher reading than a breatherlyzer, but it is irrelevent here as Florida law is .08.

"Toxicology results show former major leaguer Jim Leyritz's blood-alcohol levels were nearly twice the legal limit the day he was involved in a fatal crash in December.

Leyritz, initially charged with DUI manslaughter and DUI property damage after the crash, will now face an additional manslaughter charge, according to a Fort Lauderdale Police Department news release."

In January 2003, a group of sports-loving friends launched The Sports Frog. In the time since, we have become an oasis for intelligent sports discussion on the Web. That's right, we said oasis. If you are here for the first time be sure to swing by The Swamp and join the conversation.
