fatcowxlive Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I'm guessing the others are going to appeal? Edit: more coming in, 19 named players so far... Braun already suspended, A-Rod appealing, Valencia and Gio walk (I count them as part of the 20) and now: One more?
flafson Verified Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Any idea who the 3 "unknown" players?
admin Site Manager Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 A lot probably won't appearl, especially if they aren't in a playoff run. Serve the suspension start the year fresh.
P2F Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 This would have been more useful about 15 minutes ago, but I just came across this tweet:
P2F Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 All of these guys are Latino lol. And some people think the media unfairly discriminates against Latino players with respect to PEDs. Everyone but Braun and A-Rod (well, he was born in New York anyway). But yes, lol.
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 All of these guys are Latino lol. And some people think the media unfairly discriminates against Latino players with respect to PEDs. Players badly advised. They don't think of their nation but money; My cousin Antonio Bastardo is among them. Selfishness at the highest level. I feel very bad
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I thought you were related to Bastardo, that's right. MLB should launch some initiative to clean up the Dominican. Things are changing for the better, thanks to Selig and his hard work.

P2F Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Interesting. ACES seems to be the culprit.
bendera3 Verified Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 lol I don't blame him for being upset, I would be too.
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 That guy had a 7.02 ERA for the Long Island Ducks in 2012 (and a 7.45 in the IL in 2011). Bastardo is definitely the only reason he's not in MLB lol. In other words he suck
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Yep. Some guys should be angry about this but his problem is that he's a terrible baseball player. What's the mood like in your family re: Bastardo? Antonio is a distant cousin, I just see him on December.
BarrysSyringe Verified Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Gonna be interesting to see what the texas rangers try to do within the next couple of weeks. If the Jays would smart they would trade Bautista to them now for a huge haul.
BarrysSyringe Verified Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Yes, but they couldn't get anything done at the deadline so i think they will really push now that the news is out
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I see. Is he on your winter ball team? NO. He plays in the city farthest from where I live. Gigantes del Cibao C- Robinson Diaz 1B - Wilson Betemit 2B - Alexis Casilla 3B - SS - Hanser Alberto LF - Carlos Peguero CF - Marcell Ozuna/Francisco Peguero RF - Moises Sierra Fabio Castro SP Juan Perez LHP Peralta - Closer

Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Tomorrow's paper. "Arod hits game winning homerun. Fans don't want to see him go." They sure loved him when he was a perennial MVP candidate.
GNick Verified Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Wonder if his suspension would be this long if ARod was younger and having a great season for the Yankees?
Dr Negative Verified Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Players badly advised. They don't think of their nation but money; My cousin Antonio Bastardo is among them. Selfishness at the highest level. I feel very bad Badly advised? They are all rich now, unless they've blown their money on something stupid.
KSaw Verified Member Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Tomorrow's paper. "Arod hits game winning homerun. Fans don't want to see him go." New York and Yankees fans in general have never really warmed up to A-Rod. They love Jeter. Rodriguez has often been tagged as not a true Yankee.
Arkadium Verified Member Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 New York and Yankees fans in general have never really warmed up to A-Rod. They love Jeter. Rodriguez has often been tagged as not a true Yankee. A-Rod: Avg. WAR/year as a Yankee: 5.8 Jeter: Avg. WAR/year as a Yankee: 4.0
KSaw Verified Member Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 A-Rod: Avg. WAR/year as a Yankee: 5.8 Jeter: Avg. WAR/year as a Yankee: 4.0 His WAR has nothing to do with his popularity. They love Jeter. That's just how it is. Swisher was more popular than A-Rod in New York. Pettitte-- more popular.
Arkadium Verified Member Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 His WAR has nothing to do with his popularity. Thank you for clarifying my point, since it obviously wasn't very clear.
