    Here are two interesting parts regarding A-Rod (http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/9540755/mlb-bans-13-including-alex-rodriguez-new-york-yankees-2014) MLB commissioner Bud Selig said in a statement that Rodriguez's punishment will begin Thursday and cover the rest of the 2013 regular season, the 2013 postseason and the 2014 regular season and was covered under the drug program's protocols and based on Rodriguez's "use and possession of numerous forms of prohibited performance-enhancing substances, including testosterone and human growth hormone, over the course of multiple years." The Yankees have said they expected Rodriguez to be accused of recruiting other athletes for the clinic, attempting to obstruct MLB's investigation and not being truthful with MLB in the past when he discussed his relationship with Dr. Anthony Galea, who pleaded guilty two years ago to a federal charge of bringing unapproved drugs into the United States from Canada. That kind of supports that there was more to it.

    I don't buy that. If this whole mess has taught Selig anything, it's that stuff will eventually come out. If he was in fact playing favorites with the Yankees over this, it would eventually be discovered (possibly quickly) and tarnish his legacy that he seems to have worked so hard to create. I would think it would also be grounds for A-Rod to sue over, and he'd probably be successful. I really think there's more to it.
  3. Abomination
    I have to think there's more to it that we haven't been made aware of yet. Otherwise I completely agree that it makes no sense to go after A-Rod this hard and not some of the others like Braun. There has to be something different that he did or a very extensive history from the clinic of use throughout the mlb's drug testing years or something.

    You almost have to wonder if they may think about trading Morrow and Melky (if possible). Move EE to LF. Along with Boni going, that would free up quite a lot.
  5. Abomination
    That would be horrible. It would allow the Yankees to probably resign him at a discount. I'd rather they get another big long contract on their hands.
  6. Abomination
    Our offense really hasn't been that bad in spite of some key injuries. It's just the starting pitching that's destroying us, and with the possible exception of Buehrle who is roughly where we should expect him to be, they all seem to have something to play for.
  7. Abomination
    Me too. I want to see us win above all else, but a better draft pick makes losing more palatable.
  8. Abomination
    Angels doing an impression of our outfield throws there! Both teams really are playing horrible baseball.
  9. Abomination
    Great start by Shane Dawson in Vancouver today. 5 innings, 4 hits, 0 runs, 0 walks, 9 k's.
  10. Abomination
    It sure is nice to see Bautista hitting the ball opposite field more. Eventually that'll start buying him a few more pitches he can do real damage on.
  11. Abomination
    It's truly shocking how large a discrepancy there is between his home and away numbers.
  12. Abomination
    We're getting very close to squeaking into a top 5 draft pick.
  13. Abomination
    He really is. I suspect he won't be coming back as his salary can probably be put to better use, but he's fun to watch (at least on the bases).
  14. Abomination
    I'm not sure they would have got Davis even with a good throw.
  15. Abomination
    Batters aren't picking up the ball at all off Wilson. Gonna be a long day.
  16. Abomination
    What is it with us and first innings right now?
  17. Abomination
    Speaking of Blanco, he just went deep. Perhaps we'll find out who the closer is after all.
  18. Abomination
    Could be, hard to say. He entered in the 8th, then Seattle scored a few more runs to extend it to a 4 run lead. Dunno if they had people warming up or not for the 9th since I didn't watch it live.
  19. Abomination
    Doesn't really matter. Any fan that understands the advanced stats probably looks them up fairly regularly anyhow.
  20. Abomination
    Smoak with a 15 pitch at-bat against Chen, ending in a single.
  21. Abomination
    Edwin
  22. Abomination
    Another excellent start by Robson. 6 innings, 1 run, 4 hits, 1 bb, 6 k's
  23. Abomination
    Lind for tonight
  24. Abomination
    Out of curiosity, does the message that a user edited a post only show up if someone had replied to the post? Not directing this at theblujay, but if there's ever this kind of controversy it would be good to make sure someone didn't edit their pick after the fact.
  25. Abomination
    It'll probably be Gose, then Wagner going back down and someone like Stroman coming up in a few days (just my best guess). Or not
