You know the saying — yeah, that one. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice—if you fool me you can’t be fooled again.
Erm, anyway.
Look, I’m no stranger to, “You did what?“ I live in a house with two children under eight, a male orange cat (if you know, you know), two dogs that were rescued from not-so-great situations that don’t quite know how to be dogs, and, well, me. Even so, you have to think that ”take a PED-related sanction in MLB basically a calendar year after you took a prior PED-related sanction in MLB” is its own special case of a bruh moment.
What’s done is done at this point, and the Braves now need to scramble (again, for the same reason). But, technically, Jurickson Profar isn’t banned for 2027. Assuming there is a 2027 MLB season, anyway. Will the Braves just cut Profar for his duplicate transgressions? Will they somehow retain him and actually use him in 2027, even though he’ll have played for like three months in the span of over two years?
What do you think? To be clear: not what you think they should do, but what they will do.
