Suspended Player is Edinson Volquez

Damn it.  I forgot to guess guys on the DL.  Weak on my part.  I apologize to any other suspects I guessed, and were wrong about.  Although I think those guys really deserve apologies from McGwire and Bonds for making everyone guilty until proven innocent...

Anyway according to SI.com's Jon Heyman on twitter, the recipient of the much anticipated PED suspension is Reds pitcher Edinson Volquez.  No debate here on the "semi-big" name.  It's a 50 gamer for Volquez, and I'm assuming it was an injury/recovery situation.  Apparently there is an article soon to come on SI.com.

I'll update with the link when it's up...

UPDATE: According to Jerry Crasnick on twitter, this suspension for Volquez starts immediately.  This is terrible, the guy is on the DL, what's the point of suspending a guy who can't play, seriously...All this does is make MLB look stupid.  Way to go Bud.

APOLOGY

Hello,

The other day, prior to the Edinson Volquez news, I wrote a post making guesses on who I thought could be the suspended player.  That was wrong.  I want to apologize to anyone who potentially read that post and was offended by it. 

As the number of people reading this blog grows (slowly), it becomes the responsibility of the author to make sure that certain types of things are avoided.  This is one such instance.  I should not have guessed potential players, and I whole-heartedly apologize, and take any and all criticism for doing something like that.  I think there were a few comments including the word "retard" and they are all valid.  However, the bigger issue here was my willingness to guess, because even if I got this right.  It wasn't worth it.

I'm sorry...

Sincerely,

Caught Lookin'
