Re: A-Rod suspended for full season
With the Black Sox Landis didn't have a Collective Barganing agreement he had to work under like Selig has.
With Rose he accepted a lifetime ban as part of deal. I have no idea if any type of CBA was in place at the time between the players and owners but apparently not.
Only way for Selig to suspend or ban players for any longer is if a new CBA is agreed to by the owners and players.
The strikes and resulting CBA's took a lot of the Commissioner's power away.
