July 9, 200520 yr Betancourt, 30, is the first Indians player to test positive for use of banned substances. He is on the 15-day disabled list, and can serve the suspension -- which starts immediately -- concurrently. That's showin' him MLB! :rolly :headshake
July 9, 200520 yr QUOTE(Benchwarmerjim @ Jul 8, 2005 -> 09:56 PM) that doesnt seem fair. Maybe its something baseball can look at in the off season That really sucks. But I have a question. If a guy is suspended due to subsance abuse, is the team able to fill his spot on the roster with another player or will they play with 24? Edited to rephrase: Would they normally play with 24?
