FLASH - Here Comes The Suspensions...

According to ESPN's T.J. Quinn and Mike Fish, Major League Baseball is "expected to suspend [Ryan] Braun and [Alex] Rodriguez, along with as many as 20 players sometime after next week's All-Star break."

MLB investigators began digging into the Biogenisis records last month with the cooperation of the clinic's founder, Anthony Bosch. Now that cases have been built against the players who are suspected of purchasing PEDs from Bosch and his associates, the suspensions are just about ready to be announced. Those sentences will of course be appealed and the process of reviewing those appeals could take a while.

  1. I'm crossing my fingers somehow Puello did nothing wrong.

  2. Of he's suspended, so be it...

    Do the time and start next year in Vegas, be up in June hopefully. I'd rather it now when the Mets don't need him, then next year when they're hopefully competitive.

  3. True. I just hope he can use the time to train and get into the best shape (the clean way) of his life in preparation for Citi. This season has turned me into a believer.

  6. IF Puello is on the list, do you advise:
    (A) Throw in the towel & serve the 50 this year, or
    (B) Appeal and possibly begin 2014 in the stir (a Sept call-up in the interim).

    Obviously a lot depends on the evidence against him )guilt by association vs. test data)

  7. Oh, I would serve it right away.

    The delay has taken away the sting. Let's just get it over with.

    Does anymore remember about Byrd's suspension?
