Lebron, a member of the Indians Dominican Summer League team, wassigned in January. His contract was voided at no cost to the Indians.

Three other minor leaguers tested positive: Mets pitcher Melvin Colonand Yankees catcher Josue Rodriguez and pitcher Israel Tolentino. Theywere suspended for 50 games.
