Some postings on social media accused Franco of having an inappropriate relationship with a minor.
The Rays are in San Francisco for a three-game series with the Giants beginning on Monday night. They will then travel to Anaheim to face the Angels for a three-game series that ends on Sunday.
Franco did not play in the Rays’ 9-2 loss to Cleveland on Sunday. Though manager Kevin Cash said Franco had a routine day off, it sure seemed like Franco did not play due to the allegations.
MLB is also investigating the allegations.
