A former major-league general manager said Tuesday night there would have to be specific language in Milton Bradley's contract for his arrest on suspicion of making a felony threat to alter his deal.

Bradley was arrested Tuesday morning in Southern California after allegedly making a criminal threat against an unidentified woman. He was released on $50,000 bail late Tuesday afternoon and will have to appear in court on Feb. 8.

The Mariners owe Bradley $12 million this season, even though he is not expected to land a starting job in either left field or at designated hitter. That is for the final season of a three-year, $30 million contract Bradley signed with the Chicago Cubs before being traded to Seattle 13 months ago.

The former GM, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the language needed to convert contracts from "guaranteed" to "non-guaranteed" is very specific.
