Braun tests positive for PED’s
Milwaukee Brewers star outfielder Ryan Braun tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs and faces a 50-game suspension.
Braun was named the National League MVP this past season but apparently knew about the positive test with a month to play in the season.
The outfielder maintains his innocence, saying he didn’t knowingly take anyting performance-enhancing drugs.
This is probably the biggest name yet to test positive for PED’s, although Manny Ramirez is certainly right there as well.
It’s very unlikely that the MLB will throw out the positive test, meaning Braun could really hurt his team by missing a third of next season.
