shouldn't a starting pitcher get suspended for 9 games (1 Viewer)

Clemens gets suspended for 5 games which would mean he misses a start but the Yanks could just start him on the 6th day and he wouldn't even miss a spot in the rotation. if you wanted to make sure he was out for one rotation you would suspend him for 9 games

unless he doesn't start serving the suspension until his next scheduled start which would then accomplish the same thing.

100% in agreement, missing 5 games in not a punishment for a player that only plays every 5th day.

BS suspension anyway.

if they thought it was worthy of a longer one, they would probably give it.

Totally agree. And this is coming from someone who really dislikes the Yankees.

I think it's BS across the board just not because it's Clemens. How is a pitcher supposed to get their players' backs if they always have to worry about getting run?
