Today was the first time that Milwaukee Brewers’ outfielder Ryan Braun addressed the media since he was suspended for being involved with that Biogenesis Scandal.

He was going to have to face the media sooner or later, but I’m sure he’s glad it’s done and over with. Now it won’t be the last time he will be asked about it, knowing it’s going to stick with him for the rest of his life.

Despite being involved, Braun still has a lot of support from Brewers fans. Which is understandable. Most fans stand behind their favorite players even if they are wrong.

Unless it’s something bigger than a scandal or performance enhancing drugs.

The other topic that was discussed, was a possibility of Braun moving to right field in order to open up left for Khris Davis.

"“Possibly. We’ve discussed it. I’m not opposed to it. I don’t know exactly what’s going to happen but it’s definitely a possibility. 100 percent, I’ll play wherever they want except third base. That didn’t go well. But I’ll do whatever we want. It’s not something set in stone but it”s something we’ve discussed.” Ryan Braun via the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel."

The Brewers and their fans are hoping to have a turn around season after finishing ahead of the last place Chicago Cubs in the National League Central.
