Also discussed at r/cardinals; due to "tech requirements" here, it's easier to copy/pasta rather than hit the sharing link.
Per the story, he's appealing and appeal results should be known today. He was also fined (amount not listed) and I'm sure that's under appeal too.
As for getting off entirely? That's not happening. Will it be reduced from six games? I don't know.
Per discussion over there, it's generally agreed that six games is right and some would have been OK with 10. (I think I would be OK with that.)

He also needs to give his coach a free shot.
His per game loss on his $18M salary is about $111,000.
So let me get this straight: throwing a bat that actually hits someone costs fewer games than throwing a bat that doesn’t hit anyone?? (jk, I ride for Victor Robles and can understand his frustration, but 10 games feels about right for that whole brouhaha).
yet Robles got 10??? wtf?
5 games for the Hi-chew toss, 1 for the bat toss
