Jennings Suspended

[Miamarlin21]

Left-handed pitching prospect Dan Jennings has been suspended for an undisclosed number of games. Jennings, who was in Double-A Jacksonville, has a 2.56 ERA in 37 games out of the bullpen for the Suns.

I'm trying to find out the length of the suspension. I assume it is just a two or three game suspension due to throwing at someone, but I'm not sure.
--------------------
Update: Jennings was suspended for 3 games for throwing at a Huntsville Stars' batter.

kinda got worried there until i read throwing at someone

[Miamarlin21]

Yea. I kinda jumped the gun a little. I saw he was suspended and then I made the post while thinking it may be just for a beaning. I then texted someone and found out what it was, but the post was already made so I just went with it.

Jennings done for 50 games

tested positive for Methylhexaneamine (PED)

[Miamarlin21]

I just heard that. That's fucking crazy. I saw he was reinstated but guess not

[Fish and Chips]

That sucks

[nny]

From reading wiki, it's a stimulant and not a steroid.

Makes me wonder if he knew it was banned or not.

[Miamarlin21]

Well he still isn't eligible for the 40 next year but I thought he was a longshot for a September call up

[¿NICK?]

Since Jennings is my Volstad, I'm gonna call bullshit on this. My guess is conspiracy.

[Miamarlin21]

I just talked to DJ. He mentioned how so many people were getting suspended this year and how he just was reinstated for hitting that Stars batter, now this.

[Ramp]

that's some serious reporting right there

[Miamarlin21]

Are you being sarcastic?

[Ramp]

ha, yea I was

[Miamarlin21]

lol, why though? Better than nothing. I wasn't gonna have a sit-down interview with him, I just talked to him in passing about it. And I was on my phone and I don't like typing too much :(

[¿NICK?]

lol

“It was an over the counter stimulant and all there is to do now is take responsibility and serve my suspension,” Jennings told Juan Rodriguez of the Sun Sentinel via text message.

“At the time I had no idea what I was taking had something that was banned in it, but the substance in it was just added to the list. Not an excuse, just a fact. I should have been smarter. Now I pay the price.”

[Miamarlin21]

There are 40 games left in the 2010 season. I assume play-off games do not count, but i could be wrong. If they don't, then he'll have to sit out the first 10 games of the 2011 season.

No one believes anything you say.

I know because Brad Hand texted it to me while I was fishing with Scott Cousins.

[Miamarlin21]

Really? :(

[Mainge]

I don't know. Even though I just did, I can't speak for everyone.

You need an avatar.

[Miamarlin21]

Wait, so you really don't believe me?

[Mainge]

I don't care really. What counts is that Dan Jennings believes you. /back on topic

[Ramp]

Dan Jennings needs belly button supplements

[Miamarlin21]

I don't get why I'm getting bash or hated on. All I'm doing is trying to help to get you guys informed.

[Mainge]

For the record, I'm doing no bashing/hating and Ramp is only stating fact.

[Miamarlin21]

:( ok I guess. I just don't want to be hated/singled out/making feel like I did something wrong for just trying to help.

[Ramp]

If you aren't getting picked on, you're an outsider

[Miamarlin21]

I guess so then Ramp lol
