New York Mets closer Edwin Diaz has been suspended 10 games and fined an undisclosed amount after violating prohibitions on foreign substances, Major League Baseball announced Monday.
The suspension will begin Tuesday, when the Mets are set to host the New York Yankees at Citi Field, unless he appeals the discipline.
Diaz was ejected before he took the mound in the ninth inning of the Mets' 5-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Sunday night by crew chief Vic Carapazza after a sticky, discolored substance was found on Diaz's hand.
