Could MLBs version of the Lakers (the Yankees) be behind this?

Ironic, i know what with the Lakers and Dodgers both being in LA.

Manny is the biggest draw for the Dodgers.  I saw a report that stated last year he generated an extra 5 million dollars in Stadium revenue alone.  My friends at work bought 4 "ManyWood" game tickets and now it's ruined.  IMO they should be allowed a refund, plus they are still selling the package but warning buyers about his suspension.

So what happened is he tested positive for a fertility drug that tends to be used AFTER a player has heavy steroid use to get their "balls" back yet there are 14 tests that are clean prior to this one. Is there any possibility of them  fighting this?
