Mike Leake was arrested Monday in Hamilton County, Ohio on charges of theft.

Leake was stopped by Macy's employees in downtown Cincinnati after trying to leave the store with nearly $60 worth of T-shirts. He was taken to jail and is facing a misdemeanor. Leake, 23, is earning right around $425,000 this season.

He's making 10x more than what the average person probably makes a year. $60 is pocket change for him, yet he has to try and steal.

But yeah, it was a little extreme.

I will add the link

He was apparently caught on video.

Leake makes around half a million bucks a year, by the way, and got a $2.7 million signing bonus in 2009, so your guess as to why he’s stealing T-shirts from Macy’s is as good a guess as mine.

Leake, of Ludlow, was arrested after Macy’s department store loss prevention employees stopped the Reds pitcher today after they say he took $59.88 in property from the store.
