Major League Baseball, union toughen drug agreement provisions - ESPN

While it is probably too late to code a "cannot play in postseason" tag, the increase from 50 to 80 games for a first-time offense can be implemented immediately.

Also, since a second-time offense is now 162 games, and the suspension algorithm in OOTP does not know how many games each league plays, I am requesting the ability to customize drug suspension lengths, instead of having them hardcoded. Otherwise, leagues playing a number of games other than 162 would have second-time offenders suspended for slightly more or less than a full season.
