Mattingly Right on Mark on NL MVP Award!

I agree with Los Angeles Dodgers manager Don Mattingly whole-heartedly when he says that disgraced Milwaukee Brewers left fielder Ryan Braun shouldn’t get the NL MVP award he won this season if his appeal for testing positive for a banned substance is denied.

Mattingly, a Hall of fame inductee, Braun should be stripped of the award if it is found that he knowingly used a banned substance.

"In the end, I hope the appeal it's something that was a mistake. I don't want to see anything bad come out of it for him," Mattingly said. “It makes sense though, a little bit. It's not 10 years later, it's a month later."


After reports of Braun testing positive were released in December, the hard-hitting ‘superstar’ adamantly vowed to prove his innocence and is currently appealing the results.

Maybe it’s me Eye on Sports readers, but I’m just sick and tired of steroids in baseball at this point and I fully believe they should give any player caught using performance enhancing drugs out for an entire calendar year for the first offense, followed by two years for the second and a lifetime ban for a third offense. Enough said!
