A-Rod could be looking at 150-game suspension

 

Alex Rodriguez could be facing up to a 150-game suspension from MLB for his connection with the Biogenesis clinic, according to the New York Daily News.

 
Rodriguez had a lengthy meeting with MLB officials on Friday and failed to report to his rehab game with Class A Tampa later that night. The suspension, according to the story, would likely be the result of a plea deal on Rodriguez' part. A suspension of that length, which would be a combination of the suspensions levied for first and second offenses for testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs, could be a death blow to the 37-year-old's career. A-Rod is currently rehabbing from a hip injury. He's scheduled to return to the Yankees on July 22.

can they flat out release him free of charge if he gets suspended?

i highly doubt that.
 
It almost seems to me like the MLB sat down with A-Rod and his lawyers and basically laid out a shitload of evidence they have to throw him out of the game for good, because if accepts this offer it pretty much eliminates an Appeal's process. 
 
And if he takes a deal like this and doesn't get banned for life he still gets paid, which is why they're considering this suspension instead of hoping for a 100 game suspension. And i'm assuming his contract could be voided if he's banned for life, although I still think a lifetime ban is a pipedream.
