Say it ain't so. Joe, and Tom and Dick and Harry and A rod and, etc.,etc.,etc.

Major League Baseball will seek to suspend Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez and about 20 other players connected to a performance-enhancing drug scandal involving a Miami clinic, ESPN is reporting.

MLB has been investigating the Biogenesis clinic in Miami for allegedly distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs to players.

ESPN is reporting that Tony Bosch, the founder of the now-shuttered clinic, has made a deal with MLB to cooperate in their investigation and give investigators the ammunition they need to suspend the players under scrutiny. Bosch is expected to begin meeting with officials and naming names within a week.

The announcement of suspensions could follow within two weeks, ESPN said.

Citing a source familiar with the case, ESPN reports the commissioner's office may seek 100-game suspensions for Rodriguez, as well as Ryan Braun and other players, the penalty for a second doping offense.
