NEW YORK (AP) - Cleveland Indians minor leaguer Darnell McDonald was suspended for 15 games Friday for violating baseball's minor league steroids policy, raising the total this year to 48 minor leaguers.
McDonald signed a minor league contract with Cleveland this offseason. During 16 games with Triple-A Buffalo, McDonald did not hit a home run in 44 at-bats and batted .250 with a .341 slugging percentage.
The 26-year-old outfielder spent most of last season with Ottawa, Baltimore's Triple-A farm team, and hit .234 with seven homers and 44 RBIs in 107 games. In four stints with the Orioles, he hit .156 (5-for-32) in 17 games.
