Fernando Tatis Jr. won't be eligible to return to the San Diego Padres until next Thursday, April 20th, as he finishes up an 80-game suspension for testing positive for the banned performance-enhancing substance Clostebol last August. MLB rules permit the superstar to begin playing in Minor League games in advance of that date, though, and from the look of it, Tatis Jr. is in midseason form.
Fernando Tatis Jr. is ready for the @Padres.
The outfielder walloped three homers as part of a record-tying five-hit, eight-RBI night for the @epchihuahuas: https://t.co/s3sqtDooEH pic.twitter.com/KoEUPBbX9j
