Boston Red Sox prospect Jon Denney was arrested for driving with a suspended license early Thursday morning and responded by allegedly telling police he "made more money than we could ever see," according to a Lee County Sheriff's Office arrest report obtained by Yahoo Sports.
 
Denney, 19, was arrested at 2:22 a.m. Police had pulled him over at 11:57 p.m. Wednesday night after he "accelerated quickly," causing his Ford F-150 Raptor to fishtail, according to the report. Denney furnished a license that was restricted for business and emergency purposes after a DUI in Arkansas, the report said.
 
When asked by police why he was in the Fort Myers Beach area, Denney, according to police, replied: "Partying and looking to get some [expletive]."
 
According to police, Denney said "he was a Boston Red Sox player and he didn't care [sic] he had money and made more money than we would ever see." When handcuffed, the report said, Denney said "he would be out in no time because of who he played for and that he made three million a year."
 
Boston drafted Denney, a catcher, in the third round of last season’s draft out of Yukon (Okla.) High. He signed for $875,000. Players in Class A, where Denney is expected to start the season, make a little more than $1,000 a month.

I'm sort of wondering why the Sox just didn't have someone else drive him.

Personal drivers for low minor league guys?

Well I'm assuming they know about his suspended license. Maybe have one of the other players drive him or something. I'm just surprised from a "protect your assets" angle, I'm not chastising them.

This is the state of Florida's fault. Everybody gets arrested in Florida. If the Sox moves Spring Training to Arizona, this wouldn't keep happening.
 
Unless they were Hispanic/Latino.

Well, at least he wasn't drunk this time
 
Wait he wasn't drunk?  Re-read it and wow...I cannot believe at 2.30am he was saying all that sh*t being a belligerent dildo to the cops on his second run-in of the evening with them - and wasn't even wasted.  That's kind of amazing.

Haha, yeah, I just went through the exact same thought process. Like, he was totally sober and mouthing off about his "[expletive]" search and the who he is and his mega $12kp/a skrilla? Less irresponsible than driving drunk, obviously, but so so much lamer...
