WSoxMatt Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) In documents presented to the prosecutors office in the Peravia judicial district -- located 40 miles southeast of the Dominican capital -- Ramirez and his agent Jaime Torres are accused of owing Julio Martinez and Ramon Fernandez $450,000 from a signing bonus. The plaintiffs are also asking for an additional $131,156, which represents 5 percent of Ramirez's income from two years in the majors, the documents say. The $20 million claim is for damages and violating the contract. Give me a Break!!! it looks like 580,000 at most IF THIS IS EVEN LEGIT, where in God's name do they think they can score 20 million...GREEDY BASTARDS Edited May 28, 2009 by WSoxMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBlackSox8 Posted May 28, 2009 Author Share Posted May 28, 2009 you always break the bank with what's "owed for damages"....if settled, it would be for far less IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco72 Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Somebody explain to me why Ramirez would need to hire "talent scouts"? On the face of it, this seems like a scam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Couldn't he just refuse to pay it, and then never return to the Dominican? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea if there are any, but if there are, then he really should deal with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the face of it, this seems like a scam. I expect that they’re facilitators that helped him to leave Cuba. It’s all very disingenuous.

I don't think that even the Dominican's or any Latin American citizen can figure out the legal sytems in some of those countries. I lived in Central America for over six yers and believe me it is a real strange system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
