    Tigers infielder Neifi Perez was suspended 25 games by Major League Baseball today after testing positive for a banned stimulant.

    Perez is the first player suspended under MLB’s new amphetamines policy, which went into effect at the beginning of last season.

    He needs those greenies, lest he have a moment of calmness to realize how much he sucks and call it quits right on the spot.

    Heh, worst player in my memory to ever play for the Cubs. Can't hit, can't play defense, not a clubhouse leader. Nothing.

    The banned substances helped him to stay in the majors, I guess. Imagine how bad he'd be without them?

    Not that I know of.

    Bonds should have been, but it was another case where "he got them from a teammate's locker, and didn't know what he was taking."

    well, others have tested positive, but as suspensions are for 2+ positive tests, and no one else has been dumb enough to get caught a second time...
