basically
MLB probably went to Alex and said you have 2 choices.
1. accept the year and half suspension and still have a chance to go into the HOF,play again(remote) and get to negotiate about the remaining 60 million of your contract with Yankees
or
2. fight the suspension and we will go for a lifetime ban. If you lose then you lose everything ... current career,remainder of contract money,chance to go into HOF
since his career is mostly over anyway he is probably going to accept the suspension and just start fighting for the 60 million from the Yankees.
