UPDATE: According to Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times, Bradley was arrested at home at around 10:40 a.m for making a threat against an unidentified female. He was later released on $50,000 bail.

 

By the way, here’s a link to the penal code section 422.

 

9:22 PM: The law isn’t really my game, but our own Craig Calcaterra tweets that Code section 422 involves threats to cause “death or great bodily injury to another person.” He continues:

 

Importantly, the code section deals with threats even if “there is no intent to carry it out.” Has to be a clear, unequivocal threat, though.

 

The threats can come via text, in person, in writing, whatever.

 

Key: it is a crime to make real, specific threats even if it isn’t clear you’re going to carry them out.

 

9:17 PM: The LAPD has confirmed to Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times that Bradley was arrested for violating California penal code section 422, which involves making a “criminal threat.” That’s all we have right now.

 

9:15 PM: Here we go again.

 

According to King 5 Sports in Seattle, Milton Bradley has been arrested on a felony charge in Los Angeles County. We’re waiting for more details to emerge regarding the specific nature of the crime, but the Mariners may have finally found the loophole they need to void the rest of the his contract. Maybe.

 

Bradley, who turns 33 in April, is owed $12 million in 2011.

SEATTLE (AP)—The Seattle Mariners have agreed to minor league deals with outfielder Jody Gerut(notes) and left-hander Nate Robertson(notes), giving each an invitation to spring training.

 

The Mariners announced the moves Thursday and have 19 non-roster invitees coming to their major league camp.

 

The 33-year-old Gerut broke into the majors in Cleveland under new Seattle manager Eric Wedge. He played 32 games last season with Milwaukee but was sidelined for more than two months with a bruised left heel.

 

The 33-year-old Robertson had most of his success with Detroit, winning 12 games in 2004 and 13 games in 2006. Last season, Robertson was 6-8 with a 5.47 ERA in 19 games with Florida.
