Free agent Stanley suspended

The Office of the Commissioner of Baseball announced yesterday that free agent catcher Cody Stanley has received a 162-game suspension without pay after testing positive for dehydrochlormethyltestosterone, a performance-enhancing substance, in violation of Major League Baseball's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program.

In 2012 he was suspended 50 minor league games for a failed test. Then in September 2015 he was suspended 80 major league games. 

The Major League Baseball Players Association released a state on behalf of Stanley.

“I will never apologize for something I didn’t do. We will not stop searching for why all of this has happened.”

Stanley is currently a free agent after the Cardinals didn’t tender him a contract.
