For 3rd PED violation (all 3 within a calender year).

He's the 1st player to receive such a punishment. He's only 26. At least we'll always have his 2014 Strat card.....

Hard to believe anyone could be that stupid.

But...........here's an ULTIMATE challenge..........................Jenrry, evidently, might still be able to play in certain other leagues, such as the Dominican or in Japan.............imagine, if you will, a SOM league made up of only players who've made the trip down East, to Japan........now, that would be a league like no other, like my brother from another mother..............nahhhhh.........let's leave it be..........but I feel just a bit sad for this guy. In all seriousness, is a PED as much of an advantage in terms of arm strength as for bat speed or whatever? Thinking Roger Clemens vs. Barry Bonds. Here's an idea.......put Roger and Barry up against each other in arm wrestling..........pay-per-view!!! Kind of like Bernie vs. Hillary...........then, they'd have to do the NYT crossword puzzle too. Kind of hard to picture the whole event, ain't it?

:oops: :oops: :oops:

What makes you think they don't??

All MLB players are subject to drug testing, it's part of the CBA.

What did he do, or should I ask what did he take? A performance enhancing drug or a drug to get high?

Performance-enhancing substance, MLB said Mejia tested positive for boldenone, which athletes have used to increase muscle mass and once was popular for use in horse racing,

He is appealing.

MORON.
