The Phillies are in the news today, but not in the way you want them to be.
Phillies minor league pitcher Elniery Garcia, 22, has been suspended 80 games after testing positive for the PED Boldenone. That’s the same steroid that got Jenrry Mejia banned for life, though his lifetime ban was because he’d already been busted twice.
Garcia is a lefty who was ranked at No. 7 on our friend Eric Longenhagen’s Phillies prospect list on Fangraphs, and Matt Winkelman had him at 22 on his list at Phillies Minor Thoughts.
