Kang Seeks Help

Jung Ho Kang entered a treatment facility, I assume for alcohol abuse:

However, there may be light at the end of the tunnel. In an effort to get himself back on track, Kang has agreed to enter a treatment facility recommended to him by a joint panel following that arrest. While there is not any information as to how long Kang would be in the facility, Pirates general manager Neil Huntington said that he expects Kang in camp on February 17, when Spring Training is set to begin.

This comes on the heels of a solid, but tumultuous season for Kang. He missed the start of the season due to torn ligaments in his knee and a broken leg that he suffered at the end of the 2015 season, and was accused of sexual assault. This DUI arrest was another strike against the infielder.

I hope it works out for him. I suspect he is already at the point where it was jail or rehab.
