    After his last suspension for smoking the reefer, I had hoped he'd clean up his act.

    However, lately, I've had a bad feeling this would happen. He's got all the tools in the world to be a great pitcher, but can't seem to take it to the next level. Hopefully he can get his head on straight after this one...it's really a shame.

    Why can't these yahoos keep it together long enough to put the millions in the bank that will allow them to go on a life long bender when their career is over. This is one reason that guaranteed contracts suck.

    Not a problem, he can just play in Triple A with Manny. image

    Jeffress hasn't made it past AA yet. Manny is a Quadruple A pitcher at best. The guy is decent in Triple A, but just can't seem to get it done in the bigs.

    edited to add: I'm a moron. I thought you were referring to Manny Parra, who was recently demoted from the Brewers' rotation to AAA. I guess this means Jeffress can pitch in Single A now since apparently these drug suspensions aren't really suspensions after all.

    There you go! There are no rules about who can play in Triple A obviously.

    It's only weed. MLB let's guys shoot whatever they want into their bodies without much fear of any type of repercussions or suspensions, but won't let someone light up a little pot once in a while.

    Legalize the stuff already and move on to bigger issues.

    MLB should require all of its players to smoke pot. It'll loosen them up. image
