A-Rod Suspension is not Only Deserving but a Must

Alex Rodriguez deserves a suspension for the remainder of this season and all of next season, there is no reason why he should not be suspended.  He has been lying to not only major league baseball but also the Yankees as well about being clean since he left the Rangers, some may think he is innocent but he has admitted to PED usage before and is on the Biogenesis list as well.  According to an article byTanya Bondurant on www.pinstripebible.com A-Rod has been tied to PEDs every year since 2009, the same season he admitted to using while he was on the Rangers.  So he has been lying now for 5 seasons, to me that is more deserving of a life time ban from the game but according to the news on his situation it does seem that he will be out of baseball until the close of this season and the entirety of the 2014 season totaling 214 games. That could end his career, I think it will be hard for him to come back because he will miss a large amount of games and if he continues to use he won’t be back and if he does not use he will not be the player he has been of late. 

The MLB is more than justified to suspend him because his lies and PED usage has harmed the image of Major League Baseball, and this will also hopefully end an era of tainted baseball.  Rodriguez has many opportunities to be honest about his use and now he is caught in a major lie, I don’t feel bad for him and really nobody should.  I also think that in the past baseball turned a blind eye to use of PEDs, this is probably an image thing for the game which is most likely why A-Rod will not be handed down a life-time ban.  Either way people look at the situation the suspension will be more than deserved.
