NEW YORK -- Two Dominican Summer League players have been suspended following positive tests for steroids under baseball's minor league drug program, one getting a 100-game ban for a second offense.

Cubs outfielder Gregorio Robles has tested positive twice for a banned performance-enhancing drug. His 100-game suspension will begin with the start of the 2010 season. He still has 43 games left to serve on a previous 50-game penalty.

Cleveland Indians pitcher Jeffry Cleto was banned 50 games for a first offense and will also start his suspension at the opening of the season.

Major League Baseball said Thursday both players tested positive for metabolites of Stanozolol.

Aramis, that stuff will kill you. What Giovanny and I always did was have a chorizo burrito. The more grease the better. We figured that with two exits and no waiting, either that or White Castle's were no brainers. Hey Gio, remember the third inning of the game at Houston when you sharted? That was so funny.

Your a nut. Even Lou told you the milk does nothing to mask it. I have some tequila. Three shots after the shot to be exact. It does nothing to cover it up but I like some stiff ones before the game.

Gees, at this rate this Robles guy isn't going to play before 2013.

Gregorio Roble must have been a guest of Sammy Sosa and shared his Flintstones vitamins.
