But I am not against weed lol. I just don't do it.

If you're not with us, you're against us...

Wow, Happ just got a liner back to the head, scary stuff.

Not good. Had to be stretchered off. Yikes.

Scary to see Happ lying there bleeding from the head, let's hope he's o.k.

Released from hospital. Sounds like he will be ok.

The Jays, on the other hand, will not be OK. I think Romero lasted one out last night before getting yanked in the 1st.

The Jays are starting to play a much more sound brand of ball. Romero won't work out right now - if ever. He'll need a lot more work to make it to the majors again. Tonight will be an interesting test, they've won 3 of 4 and need to get back into the W column immediately.

Romero is a disaster. Injury bug hitting the Jays pitching again... man. They can't get a break.

So MLB is going to suspend a whole whack of players based on what some scuzzy looking clinic owner says? Isn't that weird, without positive drug test results?

Braun already had a few so I could care less if there is actually one, he's a POS like A-Rod and a whole wack of others.

Unfortunately, one of our guys has already been caught. They're talking about 50 games for the use of PEDs and 50 games for lying about it, so Cabrera could face an additional 50 games. Whereupon I think I'd drive down to Bud Selig's office and take a dump on his desk.

The players on the list, like melky cabrera and Arod, did test positive. They must have some more incriminating evidence though to make this decision.

From World Series contenders to second last in the AL

If the players tested positive, would they not already have been suspended? And if they were already suspended, they surely can't be suspended AGAIN for the same infraction?

I obviously still don't understand what's going on here. I read this article: http://www.tsn.ca/blogs/scott_macarthur/?id=424840 , and it states:

"Weiner (Executive Director of the MLBPA) has said the players' union is committed to ridding the game of illegal substances but it will likely take umbrage if baseball attempts to suspend players on the testimony of Bosch and without a positive drug test."

And for guys like Cabrera, they already served their suspensions for using drugs.

I agreed with you, that's why I said there must be some more evidence that's surfaced indicating further usage or perjury, or whatever.

All that seems to have "surfaced" is testimony from the scuzzy clinic owner. We'll wait and see I guess, but if they try to suspend a player solely off some guy saying "yep, that player took drugs" then I can't see this going anywhere.

I would imagine that their may be some documentation somewhere at Biogenesis that is now in the hands of MLB.
