Default Whatever happened to Marlon Byrd?

Where has Marlon Byrd been? I thought he did decent for us when Crawford was hurt, but he sort of disappeared? did we trade him? release him? why?

I hope he stays

Byrd was never the same after the FB pie to the face. He started breaking down physically too. He never hit a ton of HR but to me he always had the look of a user. Not to say that makes him guilty. He was just built like a RB.

I'm not sure if you were aware of this, but since you didn't explicitly spell it out for him... Byrd was suspended 50 games for using back in June.

To answer the rest of the question, we released him prior to him being suspended. Not sure if they knew he was using and got out in time or if they just released him for roster room, but yeah.

The Sox let him fly away before the hammer came down on him. At the time it was puzzling, but after the suspension it made sence.

He can be found on the new season of Ultimate Fighter or whatever the UFC reality show is

Cherries was just so used to taking out the garbage for Theo that taking Byrd was just part of an old habit.

Apparently he's in talk with the Marlins now. At least one team has it worse than us.

The Marlins are much worse than us, the owner literally doesn't give a shit at all.
