Major League Baseball said Thursday in a statement that it "vehemently disagrees" with arbitrator Shyam Das' decision to overturn Ryan Braun's PED suspension.
Das made the decision Thursday evening after hearing an appeal from Braun last month in New York City. According to Joel Sherman of the New York Post, Braun's argument was that the drug test sample was "not shipped to the laboratory in a timely fashion." This story is far from over, but the 2011 National League MVP will be in Brewers camp on Friday and a free man when the regular season opens in early April. It's a major victory for the Brew Crew and for Braun himself.
