Is having your highest OPS in AAA really that much of a game changer? I would think so, especially when you combine it with the fact that Javy is struggling at the same level facing the same pitchers after destroying A and AA last year. I don't really think Javy's situation applies. He's struggling due to his own personal flaws that everybody knew long ago. He's a huge swing and miss guy. But guys produce in AAA. Josh Vitters had a boost in his numbers the first time he went to AAA after a high 700s OPS in AA. It's not an across the board thing, but the league average OPS in the PCL this year is 767, while the league average OPS in AA last year was 683. Having your career best numbers in the PCL doesn't strike me as all that meaningful. -
they void them and take away draft picks and fine you and stuff. Are there set criteria or is it subjective? during the last CBA they included an agreement to limit contracts to seven years (8 if player stays with current team) and does something about the year-to-to structure. No clue about the specifics.

You'd trade Kris Bryant for Molina?

Perhaps because the conditions are expected to be poor, they think lack of speed won't be as much of a concern? Maybe they are the guys who remembered their long cleats.

This is an amazingly ridiculous line of reasoning. By this measure, they could never use the "maximum penalty" because there is always the chance that the next guy will do something worse. Proportionality matters, but once you are a three time offender of a fairly obvious infraction that can be easily avoided and has no place in the action of the game, you can't be protected against further punishment simply because somebody thinks that one day some other dude might actually follow through on the bite and rip off an ear or something. That's absurd.

The first time, sure. But after multiple versions of the same thing? Yes. I don't think even three biting incidents are the worst of the worst possible offenses. What? Sure, I guess a player could deliberately choke an opponent to death. But the fact that 2 years is the maximum does not mean that you can only use that maximum on the one "truly worst possible offense" and then have to go lower from there.

They are essentially giving him a multi-month vacation in a sport that doesn't have much down time. I imagine some NHL, NBA or NFL players would love to get involved in a situation where they were "forced" to miss training camp and the first few weeks of the regular season.

pictures seem to show they didn't have any tarp on the field. That would have to be some bad ass drainage system if the field isn't a disaster.
