Manfred needs to make it clear that domestic abuse, or any kind of abuse, will not be tolerated in the sport.
Back in August, Major League Baseball issued a new domestic violence policy, allowing the league to suspend players with no minimum or maximum penalty. A decision does not need to be made based on criminal conviction but is allowed to be delayed for one.
MLB made the rule with hopes of never having to use it. But it took all of two and a half months before it came into play.
