Major League Baseball is close to suspending up to 20 players connected to the Miami-area Biogenesis clinic, according to "Outside the Lines."   This will be the largest performance-enhancing drug scandal in American sports history if suspensions are upheld.

Every Saturday morning on 104.5 "The Team," you can check out my show "Cady's Corner," a local 1-hour sports talk show which covers anything and everything in the sports world - local and national alike. Once in a while, I have had the privilege of interviewing some noteworthy athletes of the past and present - and this one is right near the top of that list.

The USA Today recently reported in its "For The Win" section that Hall of Famer Mickey Mantle corked bats late in his career.  What does this mean?  Let's break it down.

For almost a year, Renan Barao has been "the talk" of the UFC Bantamweight division, becoming the interim champion while the real champion has been recovering from ACL surgery. And now, Dominick Cruz is looking to reclaim his throne completely, as he continues his recovery from the December surgery.

Major League Baseball is "actively going after" players who were named in a newspaper report on Miami-based clinic Biogenesis, including Alex Rodriguez and Ryan Braun.

The news broke earlier today about Gregg Williams being reinstated by the NFL and joining the Tennessee Titans coaching staff. He was the lead suspect in the Bountygate case and missed the entire 2012 NFL season with his suspension.

The news about a doctor from an "anti-aging clinic" supposedly giving steroids and performance-enhancing drugs to several athletes has caused a lot of debate in recent days, especially around Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez. Aside from questioning whether or not the Yankees can legally void A-Rod's contract, let's take a look at the big picture...

A report late Tuesday said the New York Yankees were investigating ways to potentially void the contract of third baseman Alex Rodriguez if he were to be suspended by Major League Baseball for his alleged involvement with a Miami clinic that dispensed performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs).

Late last week, news broke about Major League Baseball investigating what ESPN called, "multiple wellness clinics in South Florida, as well as individuals with potential ties to players." The revelations made by the Miami New Times and Major League Baseball are both startling and disappointing at the same time.
