So, when do we get the apology to poor Dino?

Ryan Braun, suspended for the rest of the 2013 season.

This makes me so angry, he is one of my favorite players. They don't have ANY proof of him using PEDs, this just shows how unprofessional the MLB can be sometimes. A-Rod doesn't get suspended? Okay, okay...

The rest of the suspensions will come soon.

A-Rod up next, and Braun has essentially admitted to using. What more do you need?

After MLB's original meeting with Braun on June 29, at which he refused to answer questions about Biogenesis, he requested a second meeting, a source familiar with the discussions told T.J. Quinn of ESPN's "Outside The Lines." Braun, after realizing the significance of the evidence against him from questions in the first meeting, decided to meet again to strike a deal that would limit his suspension to this season, according to the source.

It is because of that deal that Braun's suspension was announced Monday, the source told Quinn. The plan remains for the rest of the suspensions stemming from the investigation to be announced all at once.

Re: MLB Off-Topic 2013

I hate how all the teams whose player I voted for on MLB final vote has sent me special discounts/offers for voting EXCEPT the one team I actually wanted it for(Jays). I could get seats around:

For $20! Since I obviously don't live anywhere near there, it's a useless offer for me.

Things like this says alot about the Jays and their owners, refusing to give their fans even a single cent off of anything.

I believe that's mainly because Beeston has a "no papering the crowd" policy in place.

WAR since the trade:
A-Rod 52.2
Soriano 17.4

Typical ESPN

More like typical uneducated fan. There's still a large majority that look at those stats only rather than the SABR stats though WAR is one that I think is useful.

(I skew more toward the old school)
