Around the Horn - 6/3

It has been a while. It's also been a while since Randy Johnson made his major league debut. But tonight he can reach a new level of stardom as he goes for his 300th career win against the Washington Nationals. And don't think this one is a cake walk- the Nats put 10 on the board against the Giants last night.

There was speculation that Jake Peavy's start against the Phillies last night was an audition. If that's the case, Peavy won't even be in the chorus. He lasted one inning, 33 pitches, and gave up four earned runs. The Padres claimed Peavy's right ankle hindered his performance and caused the early exit.

Blue Jays starter Roy Halladay continues to amaze. Another complete game win and a 14 K night..and that was without his best stuff!

Phillies reliever J.C. Romero completed his 50-game suspension for P.E.D. use.

The Rangers lost Josh Hamilton to a sports hernia for a minimum of 15 days. If surgery is required, Hamilton could miss two months.

The major's top RBI man, Evan Longoria, is day-to-day with a bad hamstring.

A producer on the Mets' SNY broadcast crew was diagnosed with the swine flu, but doctors have ruled it out for the ill Carlos Beltran and John Maine.

The Indians lost their center fielder Grady Sizemore to the DL with a bad elbow and now shortstop Asdrubel Cabrera may join him with a dislocated shoulder.

Mitre Suspended for 50

The Yankees signed right-hander Sergio Mitre back in November with the hopes he could help them in the future. The 27-yr old, who has pitched for the Cubs and Marlins, is coming off of Tommy John surgery and probably wouldn't be ready to return to the mound until July. But that is probably going to change now.

Mitre has been suspended 50 games for violating the league's drug policy.

Mitre told ESPN.com that while he takes "full responsibility" for his actions, he failed a drug test because a trace amount of androstenedione appeared without his knowledge in a nutritional supplement that he bought at GNC. "Although being suspended for 50 games is tough to accept, I think that it is important to understand that I am in full support of drug testing in baseball," Mitre said in a statement released through his agent, Paul Cobbe. "I did take the supplement in question and accept full responsibility for taking it. What has been difficult for me to understand is that I legally purchased this supplement at GNC and had no intention nor desire to cheat or to circumvent the system in any way. "As confirmed through the drug testing and grievance processes, it contained a 'contaminant' amount of an illegal, performance-enhancing drug. This was not listed as an ingredient on the packaging, should not have been in the supplement and certainly should not have been available for legal purchase at a store."

Mitre will serve the suspension once he's activated from the DL.

Phillies reliever J.C. Romero, a member of the championship Phillies, is also to receive a 50 game suspension.
