Players tied to the Biogenesis scandal include the following:

• Braun, who at 29 is at the height of his career and owed about $133 million from the Brewers through 2020.

• Rodriguez, 37, who has been sidelined all season after hip surgery and previously acknowledged a positive test in 2003, when testing was supposed to be anonymous. He has 647 career home runs, 2,901 hits and is owed about $105 million from the Yankees through 2017. The team might try to void his contract if he is suspended.

• Nelson Cruz, the slugging right fielder for the Rangers, one of baseball's best teams.

• Jhonny Peralta, the Tigers shortstop enjoying a renaissance season.

• Everth Cabrera, the 26-year-old Padres shortstop who is one of the NL's best young players.

• Bartolo Colon, the 2005 American League Cy Young Award winner, who is 6-2 for the Athletics.

• Melky Cabrera, the MVP of the 2012 All-Star Game. He signed a two-year contract with the Blue Jays after a positive test ended his tenure with the Giants, who won the World Series without him.

• Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano, who is on track to be the most widely pursued free agent next season. He has been linked only indirectly through Sonia Cruz, a spokeswoman for his foundation.

• Nationals left-hander Gio Gonzalez. He was included in the Biogenesis records first reported by the Miami New Times but reportedly has cooperated with MLB investigators, demonstrating he purchased only legal substances from the clinic.
