MLB Will Interview Players On Biogenesis Lists
According to Jeff Passan of YAHOO! Sports, MLB's Department of Investigations will interview all players who are listed on documents of the Biogenesis 'wellness' clinic in Florida. Included on the list—among others—is Alex Rodriguez. The New York Yankee third baseman claimed that he stopped using PEDs in 2003, but the Biogenesis lists allegedly show his name as late as 2009 (see pic). Depending on the veracity of the evidence, MLB could hand down suspensions to the players—some perhaps longer than the standard 50 or 100 game penalties based on the discretion of the Commissioner. The Biogenesis lists reportedly also include Nelson Cruz, Gio Gonzalez, Melky Cabrera, Bartolo Colon and Yasmani Grandal.
