I was kind of wondering the same thing. Also, we need to remember that just because we found out about the failed drug test before we were supposed to, it doesn't change the facts or the process. Yes, there is hope that Braun will still be able to overcome this but we don't know if it is any more hope than any other player had at this stage of the game. This has to put MLB in a very awkward spot. If Braun doesn't get a 50 game suspsension after a failing a drug test, many will think MLB's PED policy is a joke. They have worked very hard to clean the sport up and now they have an MVP fail a drug test in his MVP year. Actually, I don't think there's an issue here for MLB, the 50 game deal will be implemented or MLB will come out with a damn good explanation why Braun was able to be the first player to successfully overturn this. If a physician prescribed something to Braun and Braun asked "is this OK to take" and the dosctor told him yes its not on the banned list how much "research" does the player have to do before taking anything artificial? (just curious).
