Former San Francisco Giants Prospect Suspended

It was thought that the San Francisco Giants gave up way too much for their return in the “Will Smith” deal at the dealine. Now it looks like they knew exactly what they were doing.

Earlier today, it was reported that Brewers prospect Phil Bickford has been suspended for 50 games for testing positive for a drug of abuse for a second time. His other time came before the draft in 2015 where he reportedly tested positive for marijuana.
