On the heels of several recent PED suspensions, several additional players are expected to receive 80-game bans as a result of positive tests, according to a report form ESPN.com’s T.J. Quinn. Player identities are not known, but Quinn notes on Twitter that no major names are believed to be involved.

LA suspended Arruebarrena for the rest of the season without pay ($4M) for breach of contract. They suspended him last year too

Puig was told by the team (and federal law?) he's not allowed to fly a helicopter to and from Dodger Stadium to avoid traffic

More Ped names coming soon. Players who tested positive in spring training for turanibol have already been notified and have the chance to appeal... So who it be?

http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/ ... eball-soon

Probably no one as interesting as dee gordon. Sounds like these guys didn't realize this specific ped can be tested several weeks out not only a week like it was a couple years ago.

Puig made about the most perfect throw I've ever seen to nail a guy at 2nd. He put it exactly on the front of the bag. Fielders glove did not have to move an inch.

O boy Ortiz coming back out after ump... After Farrell got booted on a ball strike call during papis at bat.

(Brandy) only hinted at Halladay's personal issues during her Hall of Fame speech last July, when she said, "Roy would want everyone to know that people are not perfect. We're all imperfect and flawed in one way or another. We all struggle."
