NEW YORK (AP) Oakland pitcher Brandon Mann has been suspended for 80 games and Atlanta pitcher Richie Tate for 100 games for violations of baseball's minor league drug testing program.
Mann tested positive for Ostarine, a Selective Androgen Receptor Modulator, the commissioner's office said Tuesday. A SARM acts similar to anabolic steroids.
Tate tested positive for a drug of abuse for the third time, MLB said.
There have been 15 suspensions this year under the minor league program, including 11 for drugs of abuse.
