HBT: No deadline for decision on Braun's appeal

It has been three whole weeks since Brewers left fielder Ryan Braun made a plea of innocence in front of an independent arbitrator in New York City, and yet no decision has been made about the NL MVP?s status for the start of the 2012 regular season.

Braun, who tested positive for ?insane? levels of synthetic testosterone around the beginning of the 2011 playoffs and is thus facing a 50-game suspension, could be kept waiting a bit longer.

According to CBS Sports? Jon Heyman, the arbitrator tasked with making the decision in Braun?s PED case is not being held to the usual 25-day deadline. So the review of Braun?s appeal will go on as long as it has to, with no guarantee that things will be wrapped up by the opening of spring camp.

Pitchers and catchers report on February 18 and the Brewers? first full-squad workout is on February 25.
