Atlanta outfielder Jurickson Profar faces a possible 162-game MLB suspension after a second failed performance-enhancing drug test. A person familiar with the case tells The Associated Press the process is ongoing. The players' union filed a grievance at Profar's request, though any appeal could come after MLB announces discipline. He already served an 80-game ban last year after a positive test for a hormone that helps production of testosterone. A full-season suspension would block Profar from the postseason and cost him his $15 million salary.
