I imagine almost all of us have skin in the game of who will be suspended for how long when. I know the pen is filled with knowledgeable folks who can put forth educated guesses based on available facts and logic, rather than on wishful thinking, so I figured I'd post a poll so that we can all see the pen consensus on these impending suspensions.

38Never, MLB will suspend these guys, but it won't hold up0%5We will see all 20 guys start their suspensions this year0%4Players won't miss games until next year, because of lengthy appeals0%15Some guys will miss games now, while others will successfully appeal0%14 -
The only way you'll see players suspended this year is if they're minor leaguers (and not covered by the current CBA) or if MLB pressures them into a "settlement" based on multiple offenses. I don't think the latter will happen, but you never know. I honestly don't think MLB is going after anyone other than Braun/A-Rod for multiple offenses. -
I voted for option 3, but it's totally wishful thinking.Comment

My only skin in this game is Everth Cabrera and I'm performing every pagan ritual I can think of to keep him playing the rest of 2013. He and Ben Revere are my SB guys and with Revere done until late August at least I can ill afford to lose Cabrera. :-/-----Manager of the unstoppable Rome Aerozombies of the Ugly Knuckler League-----

I just traded for Gio in my biggest money league.....and own Cabrera as well"You know what's wrong with America? If I lovingly tongue a woman's nipple in a movie, it gets an "NC-17" rating, if I chop it off with a machete, it's an "R". That's what's wrong with America, man...."--Dennis Hopper

Im torn here, maybe you can help me out.
I am in 3 leagues...of all my teams, the only one I have on this "black sox" list is Ryan Braun on just one team (I am in first place with that team - a H2H points league). I have none of the other players anywhere. So should I be rooting for suspensions to take place this year to cripple everyone else, or should I be OK with replacing Braun with Mike Morse or Bourn (my bench replacements) for the H2H playoffs (not loving it).Comment

So far, with 34 votes in, we are split exactly 50/50 (14 votes each) in terms of suspensions happening this year for some or all of the players. So, I guess what I'm learning is that anything can happen, and there is no consensus
