The fallout from the Mitchell Report continues as Buster Olney of ESPN is reporting that MLB will request interviews with 14 players listed in the report that have been accused by sources in the of using PEDs after MLB instituted mandatory testing for steroids and other performance-enhancing substances in 2004.

(See more articles in our Special: Mitchell Report section)

Those players are:

1. Rondell White
2. Larry Bigbie
3. Ron Villone
4. Ryan Franklin
5. Cody McKay
6. Stephen Randolph
7. Jerry Hairston Jr.
8. Paul Lo Duca
9. Bart Miadich
10. Eric Gagne
11. Matt Herges
12. Brandon Donnelly
13. Howie Clark
14. “Nook” Logan

It should be noted that Ryan Franklin was suspended 10-days in 2005 (the timeframe for a first time violation of MLB’s drug policy, at the time), and that Brandon Donnelly has denied using any PEDs. For how any suspensions might be doled out, read, Guillen & Gibbons Suspensions Prelude to Mitchell Report
