Just saw, disappointing to see. The bat is thicker than his arms, what the heck could he be on?

Honestly, I'm never surprised anymore when any player is implicated for using PEDs. This really hurts the Brewers though; they're going to struggle without Prince and now Braun for the first third of the season.

If he was a professional cyclist, he'd be facing a 2-year ban. He should take his 50 games and be thankful he has a union supporting him.

Not in favor or this trend. I want to watch athletes as big, strong and fast as possible when they are crashing into each other or riding up mountains or hitting baseballs. Better sports through chemistry.

He should take his 50 games....then get paid on the rest of his 100+ million deal he just signed....and be thankful he has a union supporting him.

Baseball really blows now because of guys like this. You hold out hope there is someone playing the game the way it's supposed to be played yet another shining example of the game and its cheating ways comes out. EVERY team has had half their players on the at one point of their existence and thats a sad commentary for the game.

In years to come we will all be on enhancing drugs

It seems that boat has already passed us by. It is only a matter of definition what constitutes "drug enhancement".
