Chicago Cubs pitching prospect Oscar De La Cruz has been suspended 80 games under Major League Baseball’s drug program.
The commissioner’s office said Friday that the 23-year-old right-hander tested positive for Furosemide Falcons Game Jerseys , a diuretic and masking agent.
De La Cruz is 6-7 with a 5.24 ERA in 16 starts this season at Double-A Tennessee, and is considered among the Cubs’ top prospects. He is covered under the major league drug program because he is on the 40-man major league roster and is on option to Tennessee.
The Cubs say that while they are ”disappointed” in De La Cruz Mike Remmers Jersey Vikings , they ”will support him on his journey back.”
