I think they'll chop that number in half, and he'll get 100. I figured 50 this year and 50 next, but since he's playing during appeal, it'll likely just be 100 next.

Agree, the appeals process will allow him to finish out this season.

I think the longer the appeal takes, the greater the chances he ends up missing one full season and part of another.

As far as the Yankees are concerned, it's actually better if his suspension starts in 2014. That will help them more with their tax issues.

Cuban: MLB 'personal' with A-Rod

Dallas Mavericks
owner Mark Cuban, appearing on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" on Thursday, was passionate in his stance on Major League Baseball and its attempt to suspend New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez due to the Biogenesis scandal.

"Horrible," Cuban replied to Leno's question about Rodriguez's suspension. "I think it's disgraceful what Major League Baseball is trying to do to him. Look, it's not that he doesn't deserve to be suspended. He does. They have policies in place: A first-time offender is 50 games, and a second time is 100. [Two hundred and eleven games], that's personal."
