The league announced today that Astros minor leaguers Jon Singleton and Dean Deetz have been suspended.
For first baseman Singleton, his suspension is for testing positive of a drug of abuse (i.e. a recreational substance), his third such suspension. He will be banned from 100 games without pay.
Deetz, a right-handed reliever who had just been added to the Astros’ 40-man roster, tested positive for the performance enhancing drug dehydrochlormethyltestosterone. Obviously, he ignored the first rule of thumb, which is if a supplement contains thirty letters, you should probably avoid it.
