NEW YORK -- The baseball players association says any suspensions resulting from the sports latest drug investigation likely wont be served until next year if the discipline is challenged before an arbitrator. Union head Michael Weiner expects Major League Baseball will notify the union of its plans for penalties in the next month, and the association will maintain any discipline should not be announced until after a grievance hearing, and then only if arbitrator Fredric Horowitz upholds a ban. "Were going to have a discussion with them. That discussion will include whether or not names of suspended players will be announced publicly," Weiner said Tuesday during a meeting with the Baseball Writers Association of America. Former MVPs Alex Rodriguez and Ryan Braun are among the more than a dozen players under investigation for ties to Biogenesis, a closed anti-aging clinic in Florida linked with the distribution of performance-enhancing drugs. MLB officials have been interviewing players, who have been represented by the union and their own lawyers. A provision in baseballs drug agreement says discipline for first offenders can be announced before a hearing if the penalty results from an allegation that became public other than through MLB or a team. Miami New Times published allegations in January, but the union could argue that a penalty results from evidence baseball has gathered rather than the newspaper account. After MLB and the union decide how to process grievances, hearings will be scheduled before Horowitz -- but not before September and possibly later. Each player is entitled to a separate hearing, and Weiner said the union wants Horowitz to hear all cases. "When all the interviews are done, we will meet with the commissioners office and well try to work something out," Weiner said. "Our players that deserve the suspensions, well try to cope with their suspensions. Our players that dont deserve suspensions, we will argue that they dont deserve a suspension. And I hope we have success. We may not have success on every single player, but I hope we have a fair amount of success." MLB Executive Vice-President Rob Manfred declined comment. Weiner spoke from a wheelchair and said symptoms have increased in the last month from a brain tumour he was diagnosed with last summer. He currently cant move his right side or right arm and must use a wheelchair. Weiner said the union will appoint a deputy executive director within a week or two. Most of his talk was dominated by the drug investigation. While most suspensions have been for positive tests since the joint drug agreement was reached in 2002, players also can be penalized for "just cause," based on other evidence. "In theory, they could be suspended for five games or 500 games," Weiner said. "We could then choose to challenge or not, but the commissioners office is not bound by the 50-100-life scale." If multiple players are disciplined, management and the union would have to decide the order of the grievance hearings. "Theyve got to prove all those cases. I like Dan Halem, a lot, but hes going to be running around like the proverbial chicken with its head cut off," Weiner said, referring to an MLB senior vice-president. "If thats the circumstance, well just have to schedule them and get them done as quickly as we reasonably can. And if we have the number that you suggest, its going to take a while." Weiner said the union has taken the position that players cant be penalized for refusing to answer MLBs questions in the investigation. Arbitrator Raymond Goetz overturned Bowie Kuhns suspension of Ferguson Jenkins in 1980, ruling the pitcher couldnt be penalized for refusing to answer questions while criminal charges were pending in Canada. "Obviously we have looked at Jenkins in connection with this matter and whether or not it would apply, and our conclusion is that it clearly does," Weiner said. Speaking before Weiner in a separate session, baseball Commissioner Bud Selig repeated his call to toughen penalties in the drug agreement for 2014. "Weve heard from a lot of players that increased penalties are called for. Weve heard from a lot of other players that dont think increased penalties are called for," Weiner said. "And I imagine we will work it out at or near in early December and then have a negotiation with them over that very subject." Ray Ban Sunglasses 2019 Sale .

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Brad Keselowski had his confidence shaken at Daytona International Speedway more than once.He was a good plate racer, but never could find his way to victory lane at NASCARs most famous track.That changed Saturday night with a dominating performance that gave Team Penske its 100th career Sprint Cup Series victory.More important, it gave Keselowski his long-awaited first win at Daytona.Keselowski led a race-high 115 laps then held off Kyle Busch on a two-lap shootout that sent the race into overtime for one additional lap. It gave him his fifth career Cup win in a restrictor-plate race, but all the others had come at Talladega. He won on the Alabama track most recently in May.I dont care if its not the 500. Its Daytona. This is huge, he said. I love this place.He loved it even when he came up frustratingly short, or not even close at all.Keselowski said his futility at Daytona was a kick in the you-know-what, but he and his No. 2 Ford crew kept chipping away at it even after he had a disappointing run in the season-opening Daytona 500.I got down on myself here, he said. We came down here for the 500 and quite honestly we ran like dog crap, but my team worked on it. I didnt give up on them. I believe in my team and my team believes in me and we went to work and we put together a better car, and it really showed with a great effort from the whole team. Im really proud of everybody.The race was marred by a 22-car accident that collected more than half the field and thinned the competition for Keselowski. It really only left Kyle Busch as a legitimate contender, but a restart for a two-lap sshootout that sent it into overtime forced Keselowski to earn the win.ddddddddddddHe easily held off Busch, and challenger Kurt Busch was eliminated when he was knocked out of line by Joey Logano as they headed to the checkered flag.Trevor Bayne finished third and was followed by Keselowski teammate Logano and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. as Ford drivers took four of the top five spots.Keselowski credited a push from his teammate for helping him shake the Busch brothers on the final restart.I was able to get Brad a good push to clear and get a Penske car to victory lane, which is really cool, Logano said. The 2 was the fastest car and he deserved to win the race.It was a plan to work together and disrupt the Toyota contingent that used teamwork to dominate the Daytona 500. Instead, Kyle Busch was the only Toyota driver to finish inside the top 10.Kyle Larson was sixth and the highest finishing Chevrolet. He was followed by Austin Dillon, who ended last years race in an airborne accident, then pole-sitter Greg Biffle and Clint Bowyer.Michael McDowell was 10th.Tony Stewart, seeking his fifth victory in his final race at Daytona, was in contention until a late accident. He finished 26th.Dale Earnhardt Jr. was the defending race winner, but never contended Saturday night and finished 21st. He was involved in the 22-car accident -- his third consecutive crash in a plate race -- but was able to continue to the finish this time.Miserable night, Earnhardt tweeted. Had some gremlins in the steering. ' ' '
