The Cubs signed a Venezuelan catcher, Wilson Contreras, to a $800,000 bonus last year. He almost immediately was suspended for 50 games for PEDs. The guy is turning 18 years old this year and was expected to play at an MLB academy in South America this year with or without a suspension. Not in any minor league games. I guess this kind of sheds light on his situation now. It's slightly different, but my guess is this guy is currently surving his suspension regardless of if he was going to play a game or not this year.

The only really good thing is going forward he'll be extremely careful and not take PEDs for fear of the 100 game suspension for second offender. Let's hope the guy's ability wasn't just PED driven.
