German Suspended

Major League Baseball finished their domestic violence investigation and suspended Domingo German for 81 games, including the 18 games missed on administrative leave.

German’s suspension is the fourth-longest to be issued since baseball implemented its domestic-violence policy in 2015, after San Diego pitcher Jose Torres (100 games in 2017), Philadelphia outfielder Odubel Herrera (85 games in 2019) and Atlanta outfielder Hector Olivera (82 games in 2016). None of those players have appeared in the majors since their suspensions.

The Yankees are stocked with starting pitchers, so we’ll see what happens when German is ready to return.
