Apparently, he tested positive back in the winter, and was appealing it. But gave up the appeal due to the injury because he was going to be out 40-60 games anyways with the injury. So now he starts his suspension right after the 10 Day-DL stint I think, so he misses just an additional 40-ish games instead of being suspended for 80 really. If he can serve the suspension while on the DL, even better for him getting back to baseball. Side note, he's ineligible to play in the MLB playoffs if the Mariners make it.

Funny the appeal went this long.

Cano took a page out of the Ezekiel Elliot book... haha

It's even worse when you look at the 8th round and 12th round (drafted Osuna with the last pick of the 11th round).
8th:
Cano, Pham, McCutchen, Cole, Schoop, Schwarber, Price, Pollock, Buxton, Puig.
12th:
Miller (my pick), Diaz, Hill, Iglesias, Davis, Realmuto, Cueto, Lamb, Castillo, Odor

Instead of Cano and Osuna, I could have easily of had a combination of Pham, Cole, or Pollock and Diaz, or Davis. Honestly the hardest thing for me right now is trying to right the ship with all my DLs that hit me and these two things in the last week with a max of 4 pick ups

I'm really not trying to pour salt on your wounds but the worst part has to be that you lost Osuna & Cano after our big trade where you gave up Dee Gordon and Brad Hand. That has to sting. But, that's the way fantasy goes sometimes.

If you are looking for a silver lining, look no further than your pitching staff. Probably the best starting staff in the history of fantasy baseball!

Ya, it's a tough time. But i pretty much just lost a trading chip. I was hoping to move Cano for a higher average guy, or someone who gets runs. But whatever. Hopefully I'm that spunky team that creates fits to you guys

There goes AJ Pollock. Out 4-8 weeks.

Ouch. What a great start he had.

[hockeyrobot]

Marte and Cruz left tonight as well....but most importantly.......FRANSISCO CERVELLI!!!!!

[hockeyrobot]

Ok ok....Altuve just had a bases clearing double in 8th to take the lead. Anything I said previously can be disregarded....

Really was only a matter of time with him.

That is true. It's why I avoided him in drafts. I didn't expect this start though....especially with the humidor factor. Which btw....is that having any effect so far?

I have him in one league where I drafted my OF, then drafted him knowing my OF was strong (52-Yelich, 69-Marte, 72-K.Davis, 89-Pollock. And lucked out getting 68-Andrew Benintendi off waivers) and was half expecting him to go down early with a quad or muscle strain. But it had gotten to the point where I was relying on him to be healthy cause I thought if he lasted this long, he will be healthy.

And I think the Humidor has reduce HRs across the team, and XBH. But it's too soon to know off the top of my head if it's the slumping team, or is it the stadium. I'm sure there's articles throughout the internet suggesting it's lowered power in the stadium, but I'm too lazy to look it up.

I just wanted to come on here to tell everyone....that in another league....I have a 5 SP start day.

Wish me luck.

Woah 5, I've had 4 (across 3 leagues this yr, prolly 4 times that's happened come saturday), but 5...

My guess is a 3.50ERA ish ERA for your team. It seems to balance out pretty evenly always.
