Here Comes the Boom of Suspensions

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Ryan Braun - OF - MLW
T.J. Quinn of ESPN's Outside the Lines reports that Major League Baseball is preparing to suspend Ryan Braun, Alex Rodriguez and about 20 others connected to the Biogenesis clinic in Miami.
Uh oh. The Biogenesis mess had seemed to calm down over the last couple months, but apparently there could be a major fallout yet to come. Quinn is reporting that founder Tony Bosch is prepared to testify against the players connected with his clinic. Obviously this is a story with potentially massive ramifications, and plenty of updates will follow. Jun. 4 - 7:45 pm et

Melky on the list also

Major League Baseball might suspend 20 players, including Alex Rodriguez, Ryan Braun as part of Miami investigation - ESPN

I don't expect there to be any giants on that list, but I could be wrong. Bartolo Colon is on the list, however. Tough luck for the A's.

 

[notmyfault]

Too bad...no Dodgers on that list.

 

[calsnowskier]

Melky and Colon were just nabbed last year, in part to this info. I would be surprised if they are on the suspension list.

 

[calsnowskier]

Same deal with Grendal. He is getting ready to finish his 50 games, and it was due to the Biogenesis list that came out last year.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Apparently there are about 20 players. No Giants, no Dodgers, but several Padres.

 

[calsnowskier]

Melky is on the list twice, though. Does that mean he will get his 2nd AND third strike for this?

He is GONE!!!!

Grendal and Cabrera. Grendal is currently serving a 50-game ban, I thought for his involvement in this fiasco. I doubt he will get hit again. Same for Melky and Colon.

Do you have the list?

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

I think you could see Melky, Colon and Grandal still suspended. This seems like a different thing and MLB has been looking to drop the hammer

Gio is apparently just a note. Reports are that his involvement was completely legal...

beat me to it.

Yeah you could be right,. I just think with how determined and angry MLB is with this, they will go hard after all the players they can.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

beat me to it.

you would have spelled he right
