By the end of this week, Major League Baseball will announce the suspension of nine baseball players. Some of the best baseball players in the game will soon face a lengthy suspension, and possibly a lifetime ban due to steroids.

The accused players - who will soon be suspended - have allegedly been involved in a performance-enhancing drug scheme over the past few seasons.According to CBS Sports, Alex Rodriguez, one of the accused, said he’ll appeal whatever repercussions are thrown at him. “Most of the players will be suspended for 50 games, but some – including the Yankees’ embattled superstar – face stiffer penalties for lying to MLB investigators or interfering in baseball’s year-long Biogenesis investigation. Not all of the players linked in media reports to Biogenesis face discipline."

Rodriguez is headlining the allegations because he reportedly mislead Major League Baseball during their investigation into the Biogenesis Clinic. Lying under oath during an investigation for performance enhancing drugs cannot only destroy your career, but can also ruin your public image. Bud Selig, the commissioner of the MLB, takes these actions very seriously, which is why there are talks for a possible lifetime ban for Alex Rodriguez.

The MLB and the Players Association had a meeting earlier this week and had this to say about the players who were found guilty: “Most of the players will be suspended for 50 games, but some – including the Yankees’ embattled superstar – face stiffer penalties for lying to MLB investigators or interfering in baseball’s year-long Biogenesis investigation. Not all of the players linked in media reports to Biogenesis face discipline, sources have told The News.”

Fans are waiting patiently as the finishing touches are being added to the investigation. It’s crazy to think that one of the best players of all time, a first ballot hall of famer, can potentially be banned from baseball for life because of his actions off the field.
