Baseball: PEDS in Miami
So, you didn't really think PEDS were dead and gone as a subject in baseball, did you?
Pretty scary and damning stuff for several players (including the Melk-man) in this article published by the Miami New Times this morning. The writer was in my class at Mizzou. VERY bad news for Alex Rodriguez, Gio Gonzalez, Yasmani Grandal, others. It's my understanding MLB can suspend players without a positive test as long as sufficient evidence is available. Should be interesting... |
Very damning for Juan Pierre.
|
Kind of glad the Gio-to-KC thing failed to materialize.

Braun's going to have to come up with a new excuse to bail himself out of this one.

@JonHeymanCBS
Ryan Braun says he has nothing to hide & that his lawyers used tony bosch as a consultant in appeal. http://bit.ly/YBNDZ9 |
Ryan Braun is a lecherous one who sucks the penis. Any man who starts his own line of Ed Hardy-themed clothing should have his ****ing spine ripped out by a Yautja.

Sources tell @OTLonESPN that Biogenesis clinic founder Tony Bosch will testify against players; MLB preparing to suspend A-Rod, Braun, etc. |

Sources tell @OTLonESPN Bosch will swear an affidavit that he provided drugs to players. MLB may seek 100-game suspensions for Braun, A-Rod. |
Two weeks after I trade for the mother****er in FBB. Of ****ing course.

The players who might ultimately face discipline from MLB include: Rodriguez, Braun, Cabrera, Colon, Grandal, Nelson Cruz, Francisco Cervelli, Jesus Montero, Jhonny Peralta, CesarPuello, Fernando Martinez, Everth Cabrera, Fautini de los Santos, Jordan Norberto, and a number of players who are either identified by code names or whose names appear in other documents not obtained by "Outside the Lines." All are currently on major-league rosters but for Puello, a top outfield prospect for the New York Mets who is playing in Class AA Binghamton.
One player listed who will be scrutinized but possibly exonerated is the Nationals' Gio Gonzalez. Gonzalez was listed among Biogenesis clients, but two sources told ESPN that the only substances he received from the clinic were legal. http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/...-investigation |
Ouch!! That's going to hurt some teams.
|
So glad KC is clean.

I'm sure the MFY mgmt will be all broke up over the potential suspension of Rodriguez.
|
Didn't someone break this before the season started wasn't it the same guy that broke the Melky & Braun story? he deserves a damn medal
|
Wow didnt realize Jesus Montero was in on this. Montero 4 Pineda.. Crazy trade based on returns at this point. Hasn't worked out for either team yet
|
Suspensions are unpaid yes? Does NY get to keep the eleven billionty dollars A-Rod would give up in missing 100 games?

Most least surprising development ever?

A-Rod should be banned for life...
|
Seriously...
pump Moose and Hosmer full of horse roids, greenies, HGH and testosterone and see if they can get away with using a whizinator for a year or so... they get caught, they miss 50 games...but hopefully the confidence of being super humans for a few months/years makes them good players when they come back from their suspensions what could it hurt? |
I'd hire Ben Johnson as our hitting coach.
|
Grandal is listed there and he was already suspended 50 games to start this season.
|
I don't mind these guys juicing. It makes the game fun.
|
If they suspend enough players do you think the Royals can win a few games?

MLB To Suspend Braun, Rodriguez, Others
By Zach Links [July 9, 2013 at 5:01pm CST] Major League Baseball is expected to suspend Ryan Braun, Alex Rodriguez, and as many as 20 players connected to the Biogenesis clinic sometime after next week's All-Star break, several sources told T.J. Quinn and Mike Fish of ESPN.com. |

Ryan Braun didn't answer questions
Updated: July 9, 2013, 6:03 PM ET By T.J. Quinn and Mike Fish | ESPN.com Ryan Braun, who has repeatedly denied using performance-enhancing drugs, refused to answer questions during a recent meeting with Major League Baseball about his connection to Tony Bosch and the Biogenesis clinic in Miami, sources told "Outside the Lines." The meeting took place June 29, a source said, and is one of several that MLB has conducted with players connected to the clinic. A source said Alex Rodriguez has not been interviewed, but a meeting is expected to take place within the week. Commissioner Bud Selig's office is expected to suspend Braun and Rodriguez, along with as many as 20 players sometime after next week's All-Star break, several sources told "Outside the Lines." As OTL reported, MLB started building cases against the players last month after Bosch agreed to cooperate with investigators. The question is the length of the suspensions. Sources said the commissioner's office was considering 100-game bans for Braun and Rodriguez, the punishment for a second offense, even though neither player was previously suspended for violating MLB's drug policy. The argument, one source said, would be that they -- and possibly other players -- committed multiple offenses by receiving performance-enhancing drugs from Bosch and by lying about it. Bosch's attorneys have met repeatedly with MLB officials over the past month, turning over numerous documents to substantiate his connection to the players named in company documents, sources have said. While sources would not detail what Bosch has turned over, he was expected to provide phone, text, email and other records. Representatives of Braun could not be reached Tuesday by ESPN. |
Why ****ing wait?

<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports...aled/13624217/ The federal investigation that brought about those arrests have “revealed previously unnamed MLB players,” ESPN.com’s T.J. Quinn reports on Twitter, which could well lead to another round of suspensions. (Quinn, whose Twitter timeline has quite a bit of additional coverage, says to “expect more suspensions.”) It can only be hoped that we will not see a repeat of last year’s seemingly endless saga. Nevertheless, the potential impact on baseball’s transactional side remains a realistic consideration. |

On the other hand, I think it's just a matter of time before Papi's name comes out on a report. |

Now, him being two years older than the official record, I might see that as more of a possibility. He is a USA citzen now. You can't forge those citizenship documents. So maybe thats just another BS accusation. |

Why does everyone say "This is very bad for so and so."
Do you honestly think Alex Rodriguez cares what joe blow says? The guy already is worth over a 100 million dollars. **** me with a rusty fish knife for millions and expose me for the fraud I am. I couldn't care less. As Derrick Thomas once said, "All I care about is being healthy and getting paid." |

Because people want to see those stars brought down to earth, if you will, can't have someone being all perfect. The same reasons that people were happy when Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Kobe Bryant and so on all got into trouble. |
