Certainly the Yankees are lobbying hard behind the scenes for a lifetime ban. Despite the embarrassment, it will save them $60 million or so on the last years of the contract.
What I can't believe is that there isn't already some sort of clause that would allow the team to sever the contract for violations of this sort.
