Jon Heyman is reporting that Alex Rodriguez may take a plea deal.
The plea deal, which comes as no surprise, would keep ARod off of the field until 2015. However, considering the evidence they have, MLB believes that a 150 game suspension would be too light.
MLB may have a problem as the US Attorney's Office in Miami investigating Biogenesis, which could mean Anthony Bosch wouldn't be a witness for MLB since he wouldn't want to make himself look worse to the feds. So even a 150 game ban for Rodriguez could be difficult to obtain, which means MLB would be considered the "loser" in this fight.
Alex, as well as the others to be suspended due to their involvement with Biogenesis, reportedly have until Monday to make their decision on whether to accept or appeal.
