If they are officially suspended by MLB, it has traditionally carried over into SIM.

If they are officially suspended by MLB, it has traditionally carried over into SIM. I think if a palyer is suspended by MLB or MiLB for a "major" suspension - 4 or more games (equivalent to a series) rather then a "minor" suspension - less then 4 games ... he should be suspended in the IYFBL. |

I believe we came across this issue last year and it was decided they could still play in the sim. According to the rules only those players on the official dl and those players who have not yet signed a contract are ineligible to play. The latter group becomes eiligible when they sign. This means players like Bonds, Clemons, Lofton, Piazza, etc. are ineligible until they sign a contract with a MLB organization.

A guy like Mike Cameron should have to sit out the first 25 games of the season, just like MLB.
Jim has it right...suspended for 2 games doesn't matter, but a month? They shouldn't be able to play.

I dont think we do anything with suspended players at all for many different reasons. I myself dont think its right, but between the DL and signings, thats enough to worry about.

With the ridiculous appeals process and Roids is one thing but discussions like "this guy is suspended but its for concussion medication (Cameron) when he got run over by his teammate" is a can of worms I would rather avoid.
But if this vote goes for suspended players not playing, that's what we'll do.

Cameron's mommy forgot to tell him there was a banned substance in the medication he was taking when he fell off his tricycle . ... ahh horse crap ... man up and take the suspension ... a guy gets hurt he doesnt play ... a guy takes steriods he doesnt play .... plain and simple

I voted NO because it is closest to how I feel ... but my NO vote goes along with my earlier condition ... |

I voted yes. If this is supposed to be a "smack talking" league, what do we care if a player cheats?

I vote that only drug suspensions should carry over, but suspensions for fighting or bumping an ump should be ignored.
