Nicaraguan baseball player Jonathan Loáisiga, pitcher for the New York Yankees team, is facing a lawsuit for alimony filed by his former partner, Miss World Nicaragua 2020, Sherly Casco, whom he married in March 2022.
The District Judge Specialized in Family of the department of Jinotega, Donald Guillermo Arauz, ordered the major league player to present, within a period of 20 days, a detailed report of his income, expenses and his assets. Loáisiga is accused of hiding this information and his lawyer offered the plaintiff a sum of $800 per month as alimony.
However, the specialized family judge ordered to lift bank secrecy against the Nicaraguan athlete and determine the amount that should be granted to Casco, who is currently eight months pregnant, the result of the relationship with the baseball player.

The lawsuit was filed by the 21-year-old’s lawyer. Loáisiga has two more children to whom she deposits 800 dollars a month. The marriage between the pitcher and Casco Castillo only lasted eight months and it was known that he was the one who filed for divorce.
The wedding between the two was highly praised on social networks. Casco was very active showing all the preparations for the big day. She displayed her bouquet with red and white roses, highlighting her simple makeup and decorating her long hair with a headband. “If as a child they had asked me how I imagined this day, without a doubt I would never have imagined this day as it was,” said the young woman on the night of her wedding.
Friends of both confirmed that they had known each other for two years when they decided to start a family, but months later Loáisiga was romantically linked to another young woman.
The renowned athlete is the son of Stanley Loáisiga, also a baseball player, a well-known sympathizer of the Nicaraguan dictatorship, and who works for the Los Dantos sports organization, owned by the Army.
Things got better for Loáisiga after his first contract with a major league team, with the San Francisco Giants in 2012. It was the first $15,000. Since then he has been increasing his income. He currently owns a cattle farm, he also has a mansion in Santo Domingo.
The sports journalist Miguel Mendoza considers it “strange” that with all the power of his family they have taken action against Loáisiga. “This is strange that a judge ordered the Yankees pitcher’s bank secrecy to be lifted, for alimony claim, if we already know who controls the judicial apparatus,” Mendoza said.
