Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere. I did search for "Padilla" and "Vicente" and the most recent mention of either was three weeks ago.
Vicente Padilla was accidentally shot in the leg today.

The Diamond Notes links to this article which is in Spanish. L.A. Times ran that story through Google Translate and got this:
The pitcher Vicente Padilla of the Los Angeles Dodgers was entered today in a private hospital in Managua with a bullet wound in his right leg, his family said.
The player left hours later the medical center and is recovering from a wound is not serious, the sources added to the local press.
Padilla was injured when practiced at a shooting range, 22 miles southeast of Managua.
The spokesman for the National Police of Nicaragua, Vilma Reyes, told the press that the shot that Padilla was injured accidentally.
A hospital spokeswoman ... told reporters that the Nicaraguan pitcher in 32 years, this year also played with the Texas Rangers, was hospitalized for 40 minutes and already left the medical center, without gravity.
Update linked at Diamond Notes states that Padilla's bodyguard is the one who shot him.
