why would she refuse to talk to MLB?

If he really did what is claimed you would think she would love to talk to MLB

At this point she is probably trying to avoid jeopardizing their income/assets (of which I assume she will get half).

_________________

I'm guessing her refusal to talk means her friend (The one that made the DV accusation) was full of shit and she's protecting her.

How the bloody hell would she benefit in any meaningful and lasting way by talking to a bunch of MLB dopes about anything? She's already dragging him to court and may well make out like a bandit ... sitting around talking to MLB "investigators" does not in any way get her closer to a championship.

Suspension costs him millions which will be half hers now.

Even worse, dude's only making 640k this year, she wishes she could cost him millions.

No.

You think he keeps his endorsements with his wife telling MLB he beat her and his kids?

Why would she want to hurt his earning power? When he gets that multi-million dollar deal she'll be in court on a Petition to Modify Support so fast it will make your head spin. Statutory guidelines, baby. Tell 'em, Spiral Stairs.

Exactly. Any punishment hurts her just as much as him.

Now Addison can get back to his favorite past time of not pulling out.

That statement Spiegle & Parkins read from her lawyer yesterday screams; "I wanna settle" all over it.

I think that if/when the right amount is on the table, this all goes away quietly.

However, the MLB investigation could be another whole set of headaches.

There are no headaches . Russell denies hitting her . She refuses to cooperate . All they have is a deleted social media post from a third party. I believe the woman though, especially when she stands to receive millions in a settlement .

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

First of all...yes...it's in her best interests if he is able to maximize earning potential. That child support number is a fixed % so the more he makes the more she'll get. No need to petition to modify support if the MSA is written correctly.

If he is smart and I have no doubt he'll have a good attorney, the MSA will have fixed "maintenance" amount and end date. If that's the case, she cannot come back and get more later. he'd be wise to give her a good deal and then off she goes. Even on basic support percentages, she'll live very well.

How does Addison Russell like his shrimp prepared? Battered.

What did Addison Russell say when he first saw Melissa across a crowded room?

I'd hit that!

Domestic Violence jokes? I guess I'm out of step in not finding this as light of a topic.

7 of 10 women are battered in their lifetime...

She said it didn't happen

The petitions will come as he hits his arb years or signs a long term deal and his salary jumps way up. Of course, his attorney is likely to argue for deviation from statutory guidelines as 20% of even the major league minimum can keep the kid in high style and 20% of the millions he will make as the next Barry Larkin could be seen as nothing more than a windfall for the wife to whom he was married for less than two years.

And there are some new rules regarding maintenance. Based on the short duration of the marriage she won't get much there. Plus she's 23 and a licensed cosmetologist. She is well able to provide for herself.

Where is Spiral Stairs when we need our IMDMA expert?

You just made a joke about Frank's family member who died.

"thru marriage"

Bob, but this particular domestic allegation is also through marriage. Please define your position on this better.
