HBT: MLB hasn't updated Brewers on Braun status

Yesterday an MLB official told Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that Ryan Braun?s 50-game suspension is likely to be upheld, but general manager Doug Melvin said today that the Brewers have yet to get any sort of official word from MLB.

In speaking to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com, Melvin said: ?We?re not involved with it. We can?t do anything about it. Everything comes from the Commissioner?s Office.?

McCalvy speculates that Braun?s suspension being upheld would make the Brewers more likely to sign Japanese outfielder Norichika Aoki and their 30-day window to negotiate with him ends January 17. Presumably by that point they?ll have some kind of update on Braun?s status from MLB, but as of now an appeal hearing hasn?t even been set and Milwaukee is still hoping to conduct an in-person workout with Aoki.
