Brewer fans should prepare to have the same sort of relationship with Braun as Cubs fans have with Sammy Sosa

Also, second the "Braun seems like a douche" sentiment

Right. Cutch, Marte and Friends dodging this bullet is huge.

yup. that's when people stopped overlooking stuff like his non-existent effort on defense, idiotic baserunning, selfishness, and general foul attitude towards anything besides eating his "flintstone vitamins" and sucking up to the crowd

I wonder if Braun is finally proven to have doped, whether someone will collect on his "I bet my life" statement

probably a really dumb question but can a team angleshoot if a DL'd player is suspended? ex: a-rod gets 100 game ban, can yankees remove him from DL and have him serve his suspension while injured?

No need. Games spent on the dl count towards time off.

They need to leave mi primo alone. He only did esteroids exactly the seasons cuando he was in Texas. Not Seattle or Nueva Jork. Y solamente porque he had un injury serioso. Viva mi primo! Senor Braun es muy sucio jajajajajaja.
