HBT: Peralta drops appeal, starts suspension

Joel Peralta appealed his eight-game suspension long enough to be available out of the Rays? bullpen last night, but after taking the loss against the Nationals he?s decided to drop the appeal and begin serving his suspension tonight.

Perhaps the Rays just didn?t want to give the Nationals the satisfaction of Peralta beginning his suspension for having pine tar on his glove during their series, although letting him remain active and take the loss was probably even more satisfying for Davey Johnson and company.

Either way, Peralta will miss series against the Phillies and Royals, plus two games versus the Tigers, and is eligible to return next Saturday, June 30.
