Rockies reliever Matt Herges said Tuesday he has heard nothing about his chance of avoiding suspension for his admitted use of performance-enhancing drugs. Herges is off to a good start this season, giving up just one run in four innings entering Tuesday night's game. According to the Mitchell report, Herges was involved with steroid use in 1999 while with the Dodgers' Triple-A affiliate and purchased human growth hormone as late as 2005, when he was an established major-leaguer.

This would be a huge blow to my Rox. Herges pitched great last year and has continued in the beginning of this year. It's funny that Barroid never got suspended, even though he failed tests. Now that guys that have admitted it and come clean about something that happened in the past may get suspended. I understand it if it happens, but I don't think that it should. I hope that it doesn't at least.
