Bad Bunny's Rimas Sports Faces Legal Turmoil Over Alleged MLB Player Violations
June 7, 2024
Rimas Sports, founded by rapper Bad Bunny, is facing accusations of violations involving MLB players they did not represent.
The MLB Players Association has accused the agency of offering improper benefits, including loans, game tickets, concert VIP passes, and cash gifts to players.
The agency is in a legal battle with the MLBPA over these alleged violations, resulting in a $400,000 fine and a five-year suspension for lead agent William Arroyo.
Rimas Sports filed a lawsuit claiming the MLBPA's investigation was biased.
The agency represents top MLB players like Ronald Acuña Jr. and Eddie Rosario.
Bad Bunny and his manager launched Rimas Sports in 2023 to build it into a major sports brand, similar to Roc Nation's sports division.
