Orioles’ player Jay Gibbons and Royals’ player Jose Guillen will be suspended for the first 15 days of the season. That equates to be 8.6 percent of the games and just 7 percent of the days in the season. The suspension is only 13 or 14 games. The author thinks that that is not a large enough suspension. “So you cheat, and you sit 7% of the season. Sign me up boys, I can still play 148-149 games, hit a bunch of home runs, and get my 36 million for 3 years.”
I agree with the author. I think that they should be suspended for a lot more games then that. They should be suspended for at least 30 games. To cheat and then think that you can get away with it is absurd. If you want to do the illegal drugs, then take the consequences that come with getting caught. They will still be able to earn millions of dollars, but it is still the principle of the matter. They should be forced to sit out more games, and also a fine should be issued. It is ridiculous that after cheating they will still earn millions of dollars.
