Former Dodgers pitcher Julio Urías be to reinstated from domestic-violence suspension, wants to continue MLB career
Content warning: This story contains alleged depictions of domestic violence. Former Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Julio Urías completed his domestic-violence suspension and will be reinstated by Major League Baseball on Thursday. Once he is officially eligible to play again, Urías, 28, will look to continue his MLB career, agent Scott Boras told Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times. 'He still has every intention to continue his career,' Boras said [in Atlanta on] Monday. 'He's getting in shape. Obviously, he'll have options that are open to him.' Boras declined to get into specifics on the options or possible deals Urías has on the table. It's believed multiple teams have checked in on Urías, per Shaikin. Any team who signs Urìas will have to wait some time before he's ready to pitch in games. Urìas reportedly needs to get in shape. It's unclear if he could do that in time to return to the mound this season or if he would need the entire offseason to get back into baseball shape. Urías hasn't pitched in the majors since the 2023 MLB season. He posted a 4.60 ERA over 117 1/3 innings before he was suspended under the league's domestic-violence policy that September. It marked the second time in his career Urías was suspended by the league under that policy. Urías received a 20-game suspension in 2019 after he was arrested and charged with domestic battery. Urías served that suspension and returned to the team for the 2020 season. He was on the mound when the Dodgers won the World Series later that year, throwing a scoreless 2 1/3 innings to close out the contest. He performed well for the team over the next two seasons, posting a 2.57 ERA over 360 2/3 innings and earned down-ballot Cy Young award votes in 2021 and 2022. Urías was in the midst of an injury-riddled year when he received his second suspension from MLB in 2023. Urías was arrested on suspicion of felony domestic violence after allegedly getting into a physical altercation with his wife outside BMO Stadium in Los Angeles. That charge was eventually changed to five misdemeanors. Urías pleaded no contest to one of those charges. The other four were dropped. In 2024, video emerged of the 2023 incident, which showed Urías shove his wife into a fence. Urías appeared to take a swing at his wife as the two were being separated by witnesses. Urías' contract ended after the 2023 season and he went unsigned in 2024 while the league continued to investigate the situation. In March, the league announced Urías would be suspended through the 2025 MLB All-Star break, paving the way for his expected reinstatement Thursday.

Trader Joe's are being targeted by ‘extreme' animal rights groups in California - with protestors allegedly posing as employees
Shoppers at Trader Joe's in California have been sharing the aisles with animal rights activists, and it doesn't appear that's going change anytime soon. Over the past few months, Direct Action Everywhere - a Berkeley-headquartered group - has been holding demonstrations inside Trader Joe's stores across the state. As the group's name suggests, their tactics include disrupting the daily operations of targeted companies. At Trader Joe's, that has taken the form of marching into the stores with megaphones, screaming profanities at customers, gluing themselves to surfaces, and using signs and videos. According to SFGATE, the group is protesting Trader Joe's poultry products, alleging its supplier — Perdue subsidiary Petaluma Poultry — is keeping birds in inhumane conditions. Trader Joe's has served the group a cease-and-desist letter, according to a July 3 complaint in Alameda County courts. Trader Joe's legal representatives believe the group will ignore the cease and desist and will continue to enter its stores and disrupt customers, the documents state. A group of animal rights activists called Direct Action Everywhere has been holding disruptive protests inside California Trader Joe's locations (Getty Images) The complaint notes that Direct Action Everywhere has been targeting Trader Joe's locations for years, but the group's incursions have only recently become more aggressive and more frequent. It describes the group as using signs, skits, and videos, and alleges that more aggressive tactics are causing potential fights. 'They have threatened and berated Trader Joe's customers and Crew Members, physically engaged with Trader Joe's customers, removed items from customers' shopping baskets, and posed as authorized representatives of Trader Joe's,' the complaint says. During a disruption on July 2 at a Pasadena Trader Joe's, one woman glued herself to the meat aisle. At the same time, another protester glued herself to the front desk at the grocery chain's corporate headquarters in Monrovia. Both women were arrested and charged with court dates set for August, according to SFGATE. Days before the July 2 event, Direct Action Everywhere members protested at a number of Trader Joe's locations across California. The complaint alleges that Trader Joe's employees asked the group to stop filming and to leave, but they refused. On June 28, the group stormed a San Diego Trader Joe's and some members allegedly got into a shouting match with a customer, according to the complaint. The lawsuit says that "at least a dozen customers complaint to Crew members about how shaken they were and how some of them were harassed verbally and felt threatened." The Independent has contacted Trader Joe's, Petaluma Poultry, and Direct Action Everywhere for comment. The group says it plans to continue its protests until Trader Joe's changes its poultry supplier. 'I've seen firsthand the cruelty at Perdue's Petaluma Poultry—chickens sick, injured, crammed into filthy crates, left to suffer in agony,' Carla Cabral, a Direct Action Everywhere member named in the complaint, said in a news release. 'We brought this to Trader Joe's, but instead of listening, they blocked us, refused all dialogue, and hired powerful attorneys to try to shut us up.'
