"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."

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.

Yeah, but how are records at this clinic substantive proof of anything? These aren't like hospital records...this is a private clinic named "Biogenesis" run by a guy who looks at home in a gangster movie.

So, great, you have paper from a clinic that says these guys were injected.... You see that holding up in court?

F'in Blue Jays. They're 11 games behind the 2nd wild card spot and 8 games under .500, having lost 5 in a row. They are finished, and I don't even know where they go from here.

No where? They are a joke and I have no idea why everyone thought this season would be different than the last 20. When was the last home grown talent in Toronto to really be a difference maker? Doc? Probably and he was the only thing that made those teams he was on somewhat respectable.

They went out and got a bunch of old guys way past their prime or Dicky who has played one great season of baseball his entire career. It's laughable.

lol. I still can't believe people thought the Jays would make the World Series

Good article from The Legal Beagle about Ryan Braun's odd 65 game suspension for PEDs: http://www.tsn.ca/mlb/story/?id=428245

Jays season keeps getting better and better.

Former Jays' pitcher Frank Castillo drowned while swimming off a pontoon boat. He was 44.

Game #144 update:

Blue Jays down 11-4 to the Angels. Will be 67-77 on the year.

Red Sox lead the AL at 87-58 and are 7.5 games up on Tampa in the East

The Jays, favoured to win the World Series at the start of the season, are now 20 games behind the AL East leading Red Sox. They are cursed.

Not really, I need the people I'm betting on to not Dung their pants routinely. Case in point: the Toronto Blue Jays - who collectively shat their pants so bad, it's not even funny.
