NEW YORK — Milwaukee Brewers minor league pitcher Ever Urena has been suspended for 56 games following a positive test for the performance-enhancing substance Stanozolol under baseball's drug program for players assigned outside the U.S. and Canada. A 19-year-old right-hander, Urena agreed to a minor league contract with the Brewers in July and had a 0.00 ERA and one save in six games and 5 1/3 innings in the Dominican Summer League. Fifteen players have been suspended this year for positive drug tests, including seven under the new program for minor league players assigned outside the United States and Canada.
