He's only been caught since he signed the big contract. He already wasn't going to sign another contract. What was the upside here?

I would imagine (hopefully) that now that we have Cohen we will buy him out of his remaining two years and be done with him.

I mean he has probably always been doing it. And it worked. Made lots of money.

Carry on carrying on and you get caught you are already ahead.

With all the money these guys make... why not invest in a rouge doctor or scientist to find a way to beat the test

In case anyone was wondering, Cano has already earned 200 mil in his career and after this suspension still has 2 years and 48 mil left on his contract

Are there not enough home runs? Are pitchers not throwing hard enough?

Was just recalling your post yesterday that said he was a lock.

May have been someone else’s post in your thread.

I’m assuming it can be voided or he’ll be bought out for significantly less. This is great news for the Mets. Now you can play McNeil at 2nd everyday. Maybe JD Davis can continue to improve at third. Nimmo, Springer, and Conforto in the OF and Realmuto behind the plate. Leggo

Once he signed with JZ, his career bottomed out. Bye bye

Any guesses on what % of MLB players use PED's? I'm going to say 25% minimum.

I don't get MLB players. Your contract is guaranteed. Once you get that big arse deal why give a shite about PEDs anymore?

frick that. The home run or strike out offenses with little in-between that MLB has become is awful to watch.
