Major League Baseball has put the 15-day suspensions of Jay Gibbons and Jose Guillen on hold as lawyers continue to negotiate changes in the current drug policy, according to MLB.com. The suspensions were originally set to begin as the start of the regular season.

Yankees' centerfielder Melky Cabrera could appeal his recent suspension for his involvement in a brawl with the Rays on Wednesday, according to the Newsday. Tampa Bay contends that Cabrera punched third baseman Evan Longoria. "I didn't hit nobody," Cabrera said Saturday, speaking through a translator. "I don't know what it's coming from. I just come to play baseball."

Six members of the Yankees and Rays have been disciplined for their role in Wednesday's bench-clearing incident. Shelley Duncan and Melky Cabrera of the Yankees have both been suspended for three games and fined an undisclosed amount and Jonny Gomes of the Rays has been suspended for two games and fined as well. New York manager Joe Girardi, third base coach Bobby Meacham and hitting coach Kevin Long have also been fined for their roles in the incident.

There are rumors that New York manager Joe Girardi and Tampa Bay skipper Joe Maddon could face suspensions stemming from the bench-clearing brawl between the two teams on Wednesday, according to the New York Daily News. "This is part of the game," said Girardi. "You don't want to see these type of things happen where people get thrown out, things get ugly and benches clear. We'll see."
