News) New York - Major League Baseball Commissioner
Bud Selig has proposed new, tougher penalties for
steroid use.Selig proposed the tougher sanctions
in a letter to the Major League Players' Union head
Donald Fehr. The commissioner is also seeking to
add amphetamines to the list of banned substances.
Under
Selig's proposal, a first offense would mean a 50-game
ban, a second offense would result in a 100-game
ban and a third offense would mean a lifetime ban
from the game. According to Selig, a three-time
offender has no place in baseball.Under current
rules, a first offense results in a 10-day suspension
and a second offense means a 30-day ban.
A fourth
positive test costs a player one year off the field.Major
League Baseball has been under increasing pressure
from the U.S. Congress to crack down on steroid
use. Last month, several current and former players
as well as Selig and Fehr appeared at an 11-hour
hearing at which several Congressmen called for
baseball to do more about steroids.Source: Voice
