Reports have confirmed that Toronto Blue Jays infielder Orelvis Martinez was suspended for 80 games on Sunday for violating Major League Baseball’s PED(performance-enhancing drug) policy just two days after debuting in the major leagues.

the 22-year-old Blue Jay is the organization’s top prospect at the plate and was called up last week after shortstop Bo Bichett was placed on the IL.

Martinez tested positive for clomiphene, a fertility drug on the league’s list of banned substances.

In his statement, Martinez said that he spent two years trying to start a family with is girlfriend and was prescribed Rejun 50, which is clomiphene in a tablet form, which he obtained in the winter after visiting a fertility clinic in his native Dominican Republic.

There is no word on whether or not there will be an appeal, but Russ Atkins, Toronto’s EVP & General Manager, gave a statement about the suspension. “The Blue Jays fully support Major League Baseball’s Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program, and strongly believe in keeping the game on a level playing field. We were both surprised and disappointed to learn of Orelvis Martinez’s suspension. We will do everything in our power to ensure Orelvis has learned from this mistake. Orelvis has our support, and we know he will get through this.”

Mustard Seemingly Trolls Drake With Hat At Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Video Shoot

by

Over the weekend, Kendrick Lamar was spotted filming a music video in his hometown of Compton, surrounded by a massive crowd of fans and peers. The video in question is for “Not Like Us,” one of the defining tracks of his viral feud with Drake. As expected, fans can’t wait to see the final result, though it’s unclear when it’ll finally be unveiled.

DJ Mustard, who produced the song, came out to show his support and appear in the video. In various photos and clips making their rounds online, he’s even rocking a Toronto Blue Jays hat. Many are speculating that this could be yet another jab at Drizzy. He’s from the Canadian city and has previously shown love to the baseball team. Of course, some social media users also suspect that the hat could symbolize something else entirely, which is still up for debate.
