Cubs' reliever Kyle Farnsworth has his suspension reduced.: Is there a reason almost every suspension handed out by MLB is reduced, even when the player is obviously at fault? Are they just looking for a little contrition from the guilty parties?

It always seems to me that they try to save face with the public and impose the suspension, but then a couple days later they lessen the penalty. I'm sure they don't want to cause a team paying $5 million or more a year for a player to miss a couple games but it just seems to lessen their authority in my opinion.

I agree with the other posts. I think he might only have trouble trading within his own division since those are the teams that would face him on a regular basis. The other GM's would probably take too much heat from turning down a good looking trade for no real reason.

I'd like to see Floyd get the nod. It couldn't hurt the recruiting either.

The Haters
How would a loss to the #2 team in the nation, which clearly has more talent and athleticism establish that the Big Ten is full of a bunch of nothing?
