Biogenesis not bound by JDA
Well, this is pretty interesting, attributing a quote to the head of the MLBPA:
Players involved in Biogenesis not bound by drug agreement and could get 5 game suspensions or even 500 games.
So, it seems that MLB is going to rely on something other than the Joint Drug Agreement in order to suspend players regarding drug-related offenses. There are many reasons a player can get suspended outside of the JDA. The most obvious are on-field altercations, like in any other sport. And the obvious off-field events would be something like gambling. So, it will be interesting to see how much latitude MLB has, and what MLBPA will agree or disagree with.
More details from Ron Blum.?
