January 19, 201214 yr According to a report by broadcaster Yancen Pujols, Indians' right-hander Fausto Carmona was arrested in his native Dominican Republic for using a false identity. The story was passed along by Jorge Arangure of ESPN Deportes. Maximo Baez Aybar, who handles PR for the Dominican police, confirms that Carmona (whose real name is actually Roberto Hernandez Heredia) was arrested outside the consulate while trying to secure a work visa. Details are still pouring in, but remember that right-hander Juan Carlos Oviedo (formerly known as Leo Nunez) was able to avoid jail time in the Dominican Republic after faking his identity and the Marlins signed him to a new contract this week. However, he is still trying to get his visa situation figured out and similar issues could prevent Carmona/Heredia from reporting to spring training on time. Stay tuned for further developments.

January 19, 201214 yr No wonder he has such a sick name; he got to pick it himself! Ain't that the truth. Especially over Roberto Heredia.
