Bob Nightengale of USA Today has confirmed that Major League Baseball fired Shayam Das, the arbitrator who overturned Ryan Braun’s drug suspension in February.

Serving at the pleasure of MLB and the MLB Players Union, Das could have been fired with written notice by either side at any point over the last thirteen years. While we don’t know the cause for MLB’s action quite yet, it’s not the farthest leap of assumption to imagine it has something to do with the controversial Braun decision.
