Just curiously, why? Is the evidence against ARod for obstruction and lying weaker than for his PED use? And btw, in this case, I believe he was accused of HGH use, not steroids, although he did admit to using steroids in the past.
Personally, I think the suspension will stand. Remember, the last arbiter !hired by MLB that ruled against them was fired. I have a feeling MLB picked a guy who they know will back them. The fix has been in on this from day one. It's why everyone else took what was offered to them.
