NEW YORK (AP) -- Major League Baseball has cut Kyle Farnsworth's suspension from three games to one following an appeal by the New York Yankees reliever.
Farnsworth will serve the suspension tonight, according to baseball spokesman Rich Levin.Well that's certainly an improvement over the original 3 game suspension, but I still don't think he should have been suspended at all.

You're absolutely right, it was ridiculous that he's even suspended at all. The fact that they dropped it from 3 to 1 shows just how much MLB disagrees with Bob Watson's suspension, but they probably didn't want to make the guy look like the complete idiot that he is by cancelling the suspension altogether.
Bob Watson has no business whatsoever being in charge of suspensions. There should be an independent committee of 3-5 people involved in this.
Watson is as clueless as he was as GM.
WHOAAAAAAA whoa whoa....
Im gonna agree with you that Watson isn't the best Vice Principal handing out detention slips in MLB history...
But our Dynasty was upheld by Bob Watson... After Gene Michael left, Bull did a great job plugging holes(Brosius, Knobster), and before Cashman he was an anchor advocate for fortifying our minor league system before we got all that cash and threw it at everyone.
But one thing he's done right was the Francona Rule, making sure every manager wears either a team jersey or jacket in the dugout... Terry got real pissed when he sent that spy to see if he was actually wearing his or not haha.
Come on Derek, ignore the fact that it was Francona for one minute, that rule about teams jerseys and jackets is a little silly.
Hahahaha I know, just fun to see Terry get agitated, I actually really like Francona too, but thats just comedy.
LOL true.
I also like Francona, seems like a class act, it's a shame he's wearing Red, though.
Derek, I just can't agree about the GM thing. I think Brosius, for example, was a lucky move - a mediocre player with a good glove who just happened to thrive in NY. In the mid 90s, the Yankees just basically got really lucky with a lot of the guys they obtained.
The core of the team that won all the WS was already in place when he was hired as GM.
