June 5, 201313 yr Major League Baseball might suspend 20 players, including Alex Rodriguez, Ryan Braun as part of Miami investigation - ESPN Major League Baseball will seek to suspend about 20 players connected to the Miami-area clinic at the heart of an ongoing performance-enhancing drug scandal, including Alex Rodriguez and Ryan Braun, possibly within the next few weeks, "Outside the Lines" has learned. If the suspensions are upheld, the performance-enhancing drug scandal would be the largest in American sports history. Tony Bosch, founder of the now-shuttered Biogenesis of America, reached an agreement this week to cooperate with MLB's investigation, two sources told "Outside the Lines," giving MLB the ammunition officials believe they need to suspend the players....
June 5, 201313 yr I hope so, the only reason Braun wasn't suspended before is because Selig didn't want baseball to have egg on its face for giving the MVP to a doper...

June 5, 201313 yr Author If I'm A-Rod I pack up move to a tropical island and enjoy the rest of my days doing what ever I felt like (well except playing MLB). As much money as he has, I'd tell the Yankees to give the rest of my contract to charity and I would run off with which ever supermodel I was currently dating, think I could survive on the 100 or so large that he has put in the bank already.
June 5, 201313 yr Also sure to be on MLB's list of questions is whether the Yankees' Robinson Cano, who could sign a lucrative free agent contract after this season, had any connection to Bosch or the clinic. The spokeswoman for Cano's foundation, Sonia Cruz, was listed in Biogenesis documents, as ESPN reported, and MLB officials have investigated whether she might have been a conduit for Cano. The players who might ultimately face discipline from MLB include: Rodriguez, Braun, Cabrera, Colon, Grandal, Nelson Cruz, Francisco Cervelli, Jesus Montero, Jhonny Peralta, Cesar Puello, Fernando Martinez, Everth Cabrera, Fautino de los Santos, Jordan Norberto, and a number of players who are either identified by code names or whose names appear in other documents not obtained by "Outside the Lines." All are currently on major-league rosters but for Puello, a top outfield prospect for the New York Mets who is playing in Class AA Binghamton.

He's been flipping real estate in his down time.
June 5, 201313 yr Can teams get out from under contracts if players are doping or are they stuck with them? They don't get paid while suspended obviously and no they can't void their contracts.
June 5, 201313 yr It's Roger Clemens all over again. They may get suspended by MLB but nothing will come of it. It's their word vs a guy trying to avoid more prison time. Not exactly rock solid.
