MLB to question Dodgers doctor over McGregor PED involvement
Summary

Major League Baseball is set to question Los Angeles Dodgers team doctor Neal ElAttrache regarding his alleged support for Conor McGregor's use of performance-enhancing drugs during recovery from an injury. ElAttrache, also the doctor for the NFL's Rams, reportedly referred McGregor to a specialist who prescribed banned substances after McGregor's leg surgery. While MLB is not aware of any claims against ElAttrache regarding baseball players, the investigation aims to ensure compliance with the league's strict drug policies, which include significant penalties for PED use. The inquiry reflects MLB's ongoing commitment to uphold its Joint Drug Agreement established in 2006.
