Shelley Duncan and Jonny Gomes will be suspended two or three games for their actions in Wednesday's brawl.
Joe Girardi will only be fined, and coaches Bobby Meachan and Kevin Long are also expected to be fine.
The suspensions will be served during the regular season, so it would've been strange for Girardi to be suspended for his first game as Yankee manager.
Update - 1:00 p.m.: According to Peter Abraham, Melky Cabrera will likely be suspended as well. The Rays claimed he threw a punch and MLB found evidence.
Update - 1:30 p.m.: MLB released a press release. Duncan and Cabrera got three games each and Gomes got two games.
"Now, what is this site about, how Joe Torre ruined pitchers' arms? Is that it?"
