AROD WILL APPEAL DESPITE BEING SUSPENDED UNTIL 2014

"Rodriguez's discipline under the Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program is based on his use and possession of numerous forms of prohibited performance-enhancing substances, including testosterone and human growth hormone, over the course of multiple years..." 

That is a portion of the MLB statement in reference to ARod's suspension. As of right now, MLB has suspended ARod for 211 games. He can appeal and can still play while he appeals. The suspension is effective on August 8th.

OK then... the circus has begun.
