Well, that's it. MLB had it in for him BAD. No way they were letting him get off.

Perfect whipping boy for MLB, considering the Brewers are in last place and are going nowhere soon.

Braun suspended for rest of season | MLB.com Mobile

Surprised he took it without an appeal. Wonder why? Also wonder who else they're going after, or if they just wanted him.


"As I have acknowledged in the past, I am not perfect," Braun said in the statement. "I realize now that I have made some mistakes. I am willing to accept the consequences of those actions. This situation has taken a toll on me and my entire family, and it is has been a distraction to my teammates and the Brewers organization.


"I am very grateful for the support I have received from players, ownership and the fans in Milwaukee and around the country. Finally, I wish to apologize to anyone I may have disappointed -- all of the baseball fans especially those in Milwaukee, the great Brewers organization, and my teammates. I am glad to have this matter behind me once and for all, and I cannot wait to get back to the game I love."

He likely just took the punishment to just be able to start the reputation rebuilding now. Not only was he likely caught red handed here, he also has a lot of explaining to do about all he had to say last year after that testing debacle and chain of evidence mess.

And, he is just the tip of the Biogensis iceberg, so there are more to come for sure.

He's already released a public apology, he had to have made some kind of deal. What follows will be interesting.


Not for nothing, this suspention will cost him $ 3.5 mil. Hope that 2011 MVP was worth it.....

Braun is kinda irrelevant for this season. Nelson Cruz, Jhonny Peraltla and AROD could all change the dynamics of the playoffs.

If Cruz gets the ax Texas is done. However, Texas' officials have been very confident that Cruz won't serve any suspension time this year, but haven't said why.

For the sake of baseball, Im kinda hoping that Braun is the only one that was cheating but....yeah...probably not.

For those of us who play fantasy baseball, the Braun thing is still a big deal. But, I know what you are going for here, and do agree of the greater impact on teams still in the playoff hunt.

Another liar and cheater. I knew his MVP was bullshit and it should've been Kemp that year. 65 games is not enough if you ask me.

I realize he made a public apology, agreeing to the suspension, but if others on Bosch's list don't come out and admit it...... will they be suspended?

Cause of right now, it looks as if your name is on the list, then that's what they're going by.

Not by a failed test.
