Wasn't predicted but the guy that said Melky Cabrera was being suspended ahead of time said Cano would too be suspended by MLB soon.

This guys seems to have quality sources because this news is fresh.

His assistant spent $600 on weight loss drugs in two months, nothing to see here.

This sucks if these rumors are true :(, but one positive outcome might be that Cano will be a Yankee for a few more years.

One of the problems with that prediction is that he put "will be suspended" implying he has contacts inside whatever MLB has in dishing out punishments, which I really doubt. People backing these guy were taking quotes from Gammons years ago as part of their reason to believe him.

Sure reporters hear this kind of stuff every day, but they have to cross-list information for validity, can't just tweet it out with an account that had less followers than mine did at the time.

Hey, you were the one who made the offer on my atomic! Very fair offer, would have sold if it were any other player.

It's already been stated that it was a spokeswoman for Cano and that it showed she owed $300 which is the normal price for a weight loss program. Nowhere did Cano's name show up and he is not himself under investigation.


The spokeswoman for Robinson Cano's foundation is listed as having been a client of the Biogenesis clinic last summer, although she denies having received anything from the clinic and says Cano "definitely never did."

Two former Bosch associates said the $300 monthly tab was consistent with a weight-loss regimen, not performance-enhancing drugs.

It was not clear whether the documents obtained by "Outside the Lines" were the same as the documents recently obtained by MLB.

Cano denied having any knowledge of Cruz's association with the clinic, saying Monday he did not feel a need to speak to her.

"It has nothing do with me. I'm just going to keep playing my game to help the team win," Cano said in St. Petersburg, Fla., where the Yankees are starting a series versus the Rays.

It's already up to 600 now.

Im guessing the story will change and get bigger for a few days.

Hopefully for you yankee fans and we mlb fans, he is clean.
He is a fun player to watch. But it is no longer news when a guys name is mentioned. The odds are better that any of them are dirty than they are for being clean.

I just wanted to say that.

Yankees suck!

If Braun fails another.... no words can express the mystifying decision he would have made. Seeing Cano in person wearing one of those under-armour sleeveless warmups--one of the most jacked people I have seen. Grandy I feel just benefited from a ~318 foot right field fence as a pull hitter. A-Rod, well, I don't know, guy is an idiot. It'll be interesting how this plays out.

I am sure it is just a coincidence that his assistant decided to pursue a weight loss program at the same clinic some of his teammates were getting PED's from. :rolleyes:

This is the worst thing that can happen for baseball. Baseball has had enough performance enhancing drug problems. Once again one of the best players in the game will have a asterisk by his name for the rest of his life
