Mariners reliever Julio Mateo was suspended for 10 days without pay Sunday, a day after he was arrested following a dispute with his wife at a Manhattan hotel.

Mateo was suspended for missing Saturday's game without permission, the Mariners said. The suspension, if allowed to stand, would cost him $54,645 of his $1 million salary this year. "I spoke with him yesterday morning on the phone but beyond that I've had no contact with him," Mariners manager Mike Hargrove said before Sunday's game against the Yankees.
