Alex Rodriguez yesterday was suspended for 162 games and the 2014
postseason by arbitrator Fredric Horowitz, who trimmed the ban from the
211 games imposed last August by Major League Baseball after Rodriguez was
implicated in the Biogenesis probe of performance-enhancing drugs.
Rodriguez responded by saying he will take the case to federal court.
.
"The number of games sadly comes as no surprise, as the deck has been
stacked against me from Day One," Rodriguez said in a statement. "This is
one man's decision, that was not put before a fair and impartial jury,
does not involve me having failed a single drug test, is at odds with the
facts and is inconsistent with the terms of the Joint Drug Agreement and
the Basic Agreement, and relies on testimony and documents that would
never have been allowed in any court in the United States because they are
false and wholly unreliable. This injustice is MLB's first step toward
abolishing guaranteed contracts in the 2016 bargaining round, instituting
lifetime bans for single violations of drug policy, and further insulating
its corrupt investigative program from any variety defense by accused
players, or any variety of objective review.
.
``I have been clear that I did not use performance-enhancing substances as
alleged in the notice of discipline, or violate the Basic Agreement or the
Joint Drug Agreement in any manner, and in order to prove it I will take
this fight to federal court. I am confident that when a Federal Judge
reviews the entirety of the record, the hearsay testimony of a criminal
whose own records demonstrate that he dealt drugs to minors, and the lack
of credible evidence put forth by MLB, that the judge will find that the
panel blatantly disregarded the law and facts, and will overturn the
suspension. No player should have to go through what I have been dealing
with, and I am exhausting all options to ensure not only that I get
justice, but that players' contracts and rights are protected through the
next round of bargaining, and that the MLB investigation and arbitration
process cannot be used against others in the future the way it is
currently being used to unjustly punish me.
.
``I will continue to work hard to get back on the field and help the
Yankees achieve the ultimate goal of winning another championship.
