    If he had permission to use it in the past, it does not make sense that the MLB would not keep giving him permission to use it. Did he not seek permission for the 2014 season?
    The thought is his permission was denied based on the season he had last year. Then when you compare it to what he's doing this year...maybe it makes sense. Not that it improved his performance, but Adderal helps with focus and maybe the added help with focus is why last year was so good for him. Who knows. With limited information, it's all speculation at this point.

    Under the terms of MLB's drug agreement, a first offense for a stimulant violation results in followup testing. A second violation brings a 25-game suspension, and a third offense results in an 80-game suspension.

    Amazing how many of these players get suspended just before starting a series with the Yankees...
    I miss the old Mile High Stadium.

    Oddly enough...this was a big topic on the Orioles board I belong to. But beating them in both games of the double header yesterday was a fair middle finger.
