MLB 2013 Season Thread: TEFLON BRAUN Episode V: The Selig Strikes Back

[elison]

Alex Rodriguez will be suspended Monday, likely through end of '14 season, sources have told ESPN's Outside the Lines.

Can't wait for people to finally put this shit behind them. All I'm reading and hearing about for the past 2-3 weeks is Arod shit.

Oh man Garza is having an implosion on Twitter rofl

[Judai]

Eh, homering here but not gonna happen. Davis hit #39 last night and his "slump" hasn't been nearly as bad as I had expected it would be. He's still getting hits and keeping pace overall, just way too many Ks and some deep flyouts that had been HRs. He's starting to come out of the woods a tiny bit, but we'll see.

Last time someone said Miggy would catch him and pass him, he hit HRs is 3 straight games lol.

Colon, Grandal, Melky get no additional discipline. No violations found for #Nationals’ Gio Gonzalez. #Orioles’ Valencia. They are clear.
