As we speculated earlier, we can now confirm the nature of Nyjer Morgan's suspension. The seven-game suspension he earned for throwing a ball at a fan in Philadelphia was dropped, presumably due to evidence clearing Morgan of malicious intent. His eight-game suspension for the later chain of episodes, culminating in a bench-clearing brawl in Florida, was upheld. This is the suspension he will begin serving on Friday.
Morgan was also fined for his actions.
