March 2, 201214 yr QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Mar 2, 2012 -> 04:58 PM) Which is why the best statement would have been about how the testing policy is great, 25 times Ive passed, 1 time there was an issue and because the policy is so good, the arbitrator clearly saw that there was an error and found the test unreliable. Now what can MLB say, they vehemently disagree that they have good testing procedures? For once you're right. I'd still think he was probably a juicer, but that is exactly what he should have done, and I wouldn't be able to make such an easy case without the extra details he prompted.
March 5, 201214 yr http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/03/...clap-clap-clap/ The game was at Milwaukee’s Maryvale Baseball Park and Brewers fans gave Braun a standing ovation when he came to bat. But about half of the 6,619 fans cheered for the Giants and greeted Braun with catcalls. They serenaded the Brewers slugger with chants of “Ur-ine Sam-ple!” before Braun struck out swinging against Madison Bumgarner in his first at-bat. His second time up, Braun was greeted with chants of “Cheater!” before looking at strike three.

April 24, 201213 yr Looks like we will never know the reasoning from the arbitrator. The fact that neither side seems to care is alarming.
