NEW YORK (AP) - Five minor leaguers were suspended Friday for 15 games by the commissioner's office for violating Major League Baseball's minor league drug policy.
That brings the number of minor leaguers penalized for violations under the minor league program to 75 this year. Five have been suspended under the major league policy.
The five minor league players suspended were Jeffrey Bruksch, a pitcher in the Cincinnati organization; Sergio Garcia, an infielder in the Los Angeles Dodgers' farm system; Brian Walker, a pitcher in the New York Mets' system; Jeffrey Kennard, a pitcher in the Yankees' organization; and Josh Carter, an outfielder with Philadelphia.
