As I’ve said previously, the situation involving Los Angeles Dodgers’ second baseman Chase Utley has nothing to do with the Baltimore Orioles. Or does it? No, not really – not directly, that is. At least not for now.
Incidentally, I’m talking about the act of suspending Utley for two games. Allegedly the league offered Utley a one-game suspension in the aftermath of Saturday night’s game, an offer he turned down. Keep that little factoid in the back of your pocket for a moment – we’ll pick it up later on.

Make no mistake about the fact that Utley was only suspended due to public pressure.
