In recent weeks, Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Chris Colabello and Miami Marlins second baseman Dee Gordon were banned 80 games apiece for positive PED tests -- with Colabello testing positive for Turinabol. Philadelphia Phillies left-hander Daniel Stumpf also was hit with an 80-game suspension for Turinabol.
So, why the sudden spike in Turinabol busts? That's what MLB Is trying to figure out. From ESPN's report:
The unnamed players who have tested positive have been informed, though it is unknown how many tested positive or when the suspensions will be announced, according to ESPN.
