    Freddy Galvis gets 50-game PED suspension

    Injured Phillies infielder Freddy Galvis was suspended 50 games Tuesday after testing positive for Clostebol, a performance-enhancing substance.

    In a statement, Galvis claimed that “a trace amount of a banned substances — 80 parts in a trillion — was detected in my urine sample” and that he’d never knowingly take a banned substance.
    There are some more details in the article here.

    I put that on my elbows for psoriasis. It's a thick cream that's clear in color. If someone were to sit in a armchair like at a movie theatre after me, there would certainly be trace elements and they could come into contact with it. Bummer for Freddy if he's clean.
