Two Cubs minor leaguers were suspended Thursday after testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs, according to CSN Chicago.

“The commissioner’s office announced the punishments on Thursday, identifying right-handers Assael Aquino and Luiz Escanio of the Dominican Summer League Cubs. Both players got suspended without pay for 72 games after testing positive for metabolites of Stanozolol,” the website wrote.
