a rodMajor League Baseball has informed the New York Yankees that Alex Rodriguez will be suspended Monday but can play while he appeals the penalty.

As no announcement was authorized, the person spoke anonymously.

The Yankees were not told the exact length of the suspension, but were left under the impression it will be through the 2014 season, the person said.

Rodriguez could get a shorter penalty for violating baseball’s drug agreement if he gives up the right to file a grievance and force the case before an arbitrator, the person added.

In all, 14 players faced discipline following baseball’s probe of the Biogenesis of America anti-aging clinic.
