It will be hard for MLB to suspend A-Rod for much longer, based on what they did to Melky Cabrera last year.

The only thing they have is that he may have recruited other players and obstructed their investigation. Two things that I don't think they've every hung on anyone else.

They may be going after him as a recruiter for Biogenesis. Therefore, no appeal, and the Yankees have Free Agent money for next year.

Cabrera and his legal team obstructed the investigation last year (fake websites, etc) and he only got 50 games.

there will be an appeal, as allowed per the CBA for drug issues. A-Rod will play in 2014 - bank on it.

Both should be banned for life.

That may be true - but based on the precedent set, in THIS CBA, it will be tough to get much more past an arbitrator.

I hope he gets to play. Yankmee fans want him gone, so I hope they get stuck with the bum and have to pay him his whole salary.

He can play during appeal. Better get those dingers now, once he's over 40, it will be tougher.
