21-year-old Christian Martinez was busted last week after trying to smuggle in more than six pounds of cocaine in JFK Airport, according to Joe Kemp of the New York Daily News.  The cocaine was valued at more than $138,000.

Martinez, a native of the Dominican Republic, was a prospect for the Tampa Bay Rays until problems emerged from his visa.
