Mariners' Cano Suspended 80 Games

(Seattle, WA)  --  Seattle Mariners second baseman Robinson Cano is being suspended 80 games by Major League Baseball for violating the league's drug policy.  Cano tested positive for Furosemide, which is a diuretic.  The eight-time All-Star says he was given the substance by a licensed doctor in the Dominican Republic to treat a medical ailment and did not realize it was a banned substance.  The 35-year-old will forfeit around 11-million-dollars in salary during the suspension.  He's hitting .287 with four home runs and 23 RBI in 39 games this season.
