  • Dee Gordon Receives 80-Game PED Suspension

    http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2016/0...uspension.html

    So apparently Dee Gordon just received a 80-Game PED suspension

    Apparently he tested positive for the banned substances exogenous testosterone and clostebol.

    Literally just breaking. Season's over.

    Gonna need to play Dietrich full time now, and probably at second so defensively it stinks but at least his bat will be in the lineup every day. Put Yelich back in the leadoff spot and hope he continues his level of success. Yelich-Prado-(maybe Dietrich 3rd)-Stanton at the top of the order is still pretty good, but fuck this hurts.

        Damnit Bonds. We said to give that stuff to Stanton not the freakin leadoff hitter.

        But being serious for a second, this is incredibly shocking. I have no idea why Dee would need to use testosterone. It had to be some kind of mix up in the supplements he was using or just not knowing what he was taking.

          Said it in the series thread but he's been hitting the ball a LOT in the air this year. Wonder if there's any correlation.

            Not sure some combination of this didn't need to happen anyway, as far as lineup shuffling is concerned.. Gordon's OBP is .289(only above Hechavarria and Ozuna among the regular starters).

              Ichiro is gonna get so many ABs in cf now so we have a "leadoff hitter"

                  So in this scenario Ozuna has to lose at bats. You're not taking Stanton's at bats and Yelich is by far the most consistent hitter in our lineup.

                  Not to mention Ozuna's actually started hitting again the last two weeks. I'm sure Ichiro will get at bats, but I don't see who in the outfield you take out unless you're looking to replace Ozuna. I am interested to see Dietrich play 80 games. I've always been a fan of his approach at the plate and power potential for a 2nd baseman. Dee's in all scenarios better, but if Dietrich can become an .800+ OPS hitter I don't see him being that far off.

                    I'd imagine Rojas would get some playing time too, but I really like him in the role he's at now of late game defense. Don't really want to waste that.

                          Classic Marlins. 5-game win streak undercut by 80-game suspension of their MVP of last season. Seriously what the fuck is Dee doing taking PEDs?

                              My thoughts exactly. CLASSIC Marlins.

                              Well, better Dee than Yelich, Stanton or one of our top of the rotation guys.

                              The Marlins will get Dee back for the final 61 game race to the playoffs.

                              Obviously Dee is a better defender and baserunner but

                              Derek Deitrich OPS 1.013
