Melky Cabrera Suspended 50 Games

Aug 15, 2012 3:10 PM EST

Melky Cabrera has been suspended 50 games after violating Major League Baseball's drug program.

Cabrera, who was the MVP of the 2012 All-Star Game, tested positive for testosterone.

Cabrera is hitting .346, the second-highest average in the National League. The Giants have 45 games left in the regular season, meaning his suspension would carry over into the playoffs if the team qualifies.
