MLB clears Ryan Zimmerman, Ryan Howard in PED investigation
Major League Baseball completed its investigation into the allegations made against Washington’s Ryan Zimmerman and Philadelphia’s Ryan Howard by an Al-Jazeera documentary, and has found neither player guilty of any wrongdoing.
The league said in a statement released Friday that both players fully cooperated with the investigation, and the league found no evidence that they had violated the league’s drug policy.

Both Howard and Zimmerman denied the allegations from day one. In fact, a lawyer representing both players threatened a lawsuit. MLB’s investigation has corroborated their denials. We will see if the NFL’s investigation ends the same way.
