Brilliant, Alex. Just brilliant. [MENTION=3127]Super Mario[/MENTION]
Cardinals pitching prospect Alex Reyes has been suspended 50 games for a second positive test for a drug of abuse.
Reyes revealed in a statement that the drug he tested positive for was marijuana. The suspension includes what remains of the Arizona Fall League season, so that will shave a few contests off of Reyes' regular season absence next year. One of the top prospects in baseball, Reyes posted a 2.49 ERA with 151 strikeouts over 101 1/3 innings between High- and Double-A this season. He should still have a good shot to end 2016 in the majors, but the suspension obviously doesn't help his chances.
