How many to go? Brewers superstar Ryan Braun was the first victim of Major League Baseball’s investigation into the Biogenesis of America clinic, as the league suspended him on Friday for the remainder of the season without pay. Now the focus has shifted to Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez. The evidence against the 14-time All-Star is ”far beyond” what the league had against Braun, according to ESPN.com. However, the Yankees don’t expect Rodriguez to be suspended immediately, sources told the website. ESPN.com is also reporting that, according to sources, Rodriguez could very likely face a suspension similar to Braun’s. An MLB source told CBS Evening News’ Jim Axelrod, however, that the five-time American League home-run champion could be looking at a lifetime ban. So will the three-time American League MVP cut a deal with the league? “My understanding is he’s trying to make a deal,” a source told the website. “But I don’t think it’s going to happen (Monday).” A-Rod has admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs while with the Texas Rangers from 2001-03. The injured 37-year-old, who has denied using them since, told WFAN radio last week that he hasn’t instructed anyone to make a deal with the league “at this point” regarding a Biogenesis-related suspension. But following Braun’s decision to cooperate with MLB investigators, A-Rod could end up changing his mind and taking the same route. CBSSports.com/WFAN baseball insider Jon Heyman reported on Monday, prior to the announcement of Braun’s punishmen, that Rodriguez’s suspension is expected to be announced within the next two to three weeks. “I don’t know what happened with Alex,” Yankees closer Mariano Rivera said on Monday. “He’s my teammate, and I have to support him 100 percent. We need to see where this goes. The good thing about this is we’re cleaning the game. That’s the way it should be. I think this is a message for whoever tries to do this again, that it’s going to be caught. It’s going to be caught. “I mean, I have to support him. He’s my teammate. He’s my brother. Definitely, I (can’t) say if he did or didn’t do it. If it happens, I can’t throw him in the street, you know? He’s still my brother.” The 20-year veteran batted .272 with 18 home runs and 57 RBIs for the Yankees in 2012. He hasn’t played at all this season.

To: Brian S (#0) I gave up on pro baseball after that strike in '93(?). Like many sports involving millions of dollar, cheating is part of the game. I think I have 7 Reggie Jackson Topps rookie cards from my teenage days. They were worth something when he made the Hall of Fame, but then the baseball card business became crooked too. I suppose they're worth a few bucks to someone. Fred Mertz  posted on  2013-07-24   12:20:28 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #2. To: Fred Mertz (#1) I only started following again after the Tigers started doing good. Still don't just sit down and watch all nine inning of a game. Usually have it on the radio and if it is a tight game, might watch the last innings. Brian S  posted on  2013-07-24   12:36:49 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #5. To: Brian S (#2) Tigers are an awesome team. I am a Texas Rangers fan since the early 2000s before they started getting good. Was a Mets fan as a kid, but with most of my military service when not deployed in Texas, my boys converted me:) redleghunter  posted on  2013-07-24   16:11:11 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #7. To: redleghunter (#5) I am a Texas Rangers fan since the early 2000s before they started getting good. Did you get to see Matt Garza's debut with Texas last night?? He looked pretty good only giving up one run (unearned). Also beginning to look like Berkman is done for the year and may be retiring.

But did see the highlights. Awesome outing and he is a keeper. Hope he stays healthy and if he does I hope Daniels signs him to a long term contract. Having Yu, Harrison, Garza, Holland and Perez for years to come is something we need in Texas baseball. Now we need to get a RH bat OF and this team will get much better. Yeah we may have to trade for Morales of the the Mariners if Berkman is out for the season. JD knew Berk was a crap shoot. Berk is a good man and won't hurt this team by pretending he can come back if he really can't. Unlike A-Rod with the Yankees. We may have a hole at RF power bat since I think Cruz is going to strike a deal with MLB and will miss the remainder of the regular season. redleghunter  posted on  2013-07-25   11:06:00 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #13. To: redleghunter (#9) Yeah we may have to trade for Morales of the the Mariners if Berkman is out for the season. So what do you plan on doing with Moreland if you acquire Morales to play first? They are also looking at Adam Dunn 1B and Alex Rios OF both of the White Sox. CZ82  posted on  2013-07-25   16:47:56 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #14. To: CZ82 (#13) So what do you plan on doing with Moreland if you acquire Morales to play first? Don't think we will get Morales but if we do he would replace Berkman as DH. Keep Moreland at 1B---great defender and once he comes out of this slump his bat will be key. redleghunter  posted on  2013-07-31   12:53:44 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #16. To: redleghunter (#14) Looks like they decided that there wasn't any hitters out there worth trading for, or if there was the cost was too high. But they did make a really nice pickup in Garza, now all they need to do is get him to sign a contract to keep him around for a few years.

But they did make a really nice pickup in Garza, now all they need to do is get him to sign a contract to keep him around for a few years. I think JD (GM John Daniels) was smart. We were not going to "sell the farm" literally for a mediocre bat. The Twitter sphere was a buzz yesterday with JD trying to make a big deal for a young long term contract big bat in Gioncarlo Stanton of the Marlins. Either the price was too high (understandable given the kid is only 25 and has years to play) or Miami wondered if they could get people to come to games if they dealt him. If the Rangers can keep pitching the way they are now and getting the key hits like the past few nights, I think we will be ok. I still think JD is going to work the long-term contract big bat before the non waiver deadline at the end of August. If not, our chances are better on the off season Free Agent Market.

To: CZ82 (#16) Here is some insider info on how JD tried to get a big bat before the trade deadline. This is from a poster at sportshoopla.com with some inside connections: Originally Posted by terpsfball09 For some reason I wouldnt be surprised at all to see Lee on waivers again (not that we would want him). Here's one last bit of deadline info I got: Last night at around 6 we were heavily involved with the blue jays to get bautista. Rangers would've traded Profar, Alfaro, Luke Jackson, and one lesser prospect (assuming this is Ryan Rua). The trade was actually close. Then for some reason the Blue Jays backed out and told JD that they just couldn't do it and tried to trade us encarnacion for the same players instead. We didn't want to do that, so the trade fell through. We asked them at least 2 more times today to reconsider, but they didn't. We also talked to the Rockies and one other team about a 3 team trade with us getting Cargo and losing Profar, E. Beltre, plus more prospects. This trade wasn't very close though, it was just a discussion. Then at around noon today we had preliminary talks to Miami about Stanton. Miami said this morning they were "willing to listen" on him. We talked to them about sending Profar, Perez, and some others. I don't have much more on this other than Miami wanted one major league ready outfielder in return. So it didn't work out. It was at this point where JD stopped going after the really big bats. In the last 20 minutes he made a late push at Hunter Pence and Michael Morse. Obviously these didn't work out either. He had an extremely busy day. The man tried his best, but it was just one of those years. We'll be big players this offseason I'm sure. Hope this interests some. I know it was after the fact, but I guess its a testament at the type of day our GM has had redleghunter  posted on  2013-08-01 11:55:07 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   End Trace Mode for Comment # 16.
