NEW YORK (AP) — a third positive test for a drug of abuse under baseball’s minor league drug program.Filia served a 50-game suspension at the start of last season after his second positive test for a drug of abuse. The 26-year-old returned to hit .274 with two homers and 38 RBIs in 79 games for Double-A Arkansas.Kansas City pitcher Jon Perrin and Boston pitcher Chase Shugart were suspended for 50 games each Friday following second positive tests for a drug of abuse.Perrin Cam Bedrosian Jersey , a 25-year-old right-hander, was 3-4 with a 3.67 ERA in six starts and 27 relief appearances at Double-A and Triple-A.Shugart, a 22-year-old right-hander, was 0-1 with a 1.13 ERA in four starts last season in the Gulf Coast and New York-Penn Leagues.Twelve players have been suspended this year under the minor league program, plus Boston pitcher Steven Wright, Kansas City pitcher Eric Skoglund and Houston pitcher Francis Martes under the major league program. The New York Yankees have bolstered their starting rotation by acquiring Seattle Mariners lefty and Canadian James Paxton in a blockbuster deal, with three prospects headed to the Emerald City.Per Corey Brock of The Athletic http://www.angelsfanproshop.com/authentic-zack-cozart-jersey , the Mariners are getting prospects Justus Sheffield, Erik Swanson and Don Thompson-Williams.Paxton deal to Yankees is for Sheffield, OF Don Thompson-Williams and RHP Erik Swanson.— Corey Brock (@CoreyBrockMLB) November 19, 2018Paxton - who threw a no-hitter against the Toronto Blue Jays back on May 8 - enjoyed another stellar season on an otherwise mediocre Mariners team. He reached double-digit wins for the second consecutive season, going 11-6 with a 3.76 ERA and 208 strikeouts in 160.1 innings pitched.advertisingPaxton joins a stacked Yankees rotation that propelled them to another playoff spot in 2018, though the Boston Red Sox defeated them in the ALDS. With C.C. Sabathia, Masahiro Tanaka and Luis Severino in the fold Blake Parker Jersey , New York has arguably the deepest starting rotation in all of baseball now. Credit: Joe Nicholson-USA TODAY SportsAs for the Mariners, trading Paxton appears to be the start of a rebuilding process. Second baseman Robinson Cano has been the subject of trade rumors, though moving out the 36-year-old is easier said than done.Seattle has missed the playoffs every year now since the 2001 season, and despite having a solid core built around Cano, Kyle Seager, Paxton and Felix Hernandez, they just haven't been able to build up the right group to make a run.advertisingWhat This MeansThe Yankees are now built even further to embark on a championship run - and thus topple the Red Sox in the AL East race. They've stacked up on left-handed pitchers http://www.angelsfanproshop.com/authentic-zack-cozart-jersey , and Paxton should be a great fit in The Bronx.For the Mariners, they get a nice haul in return for Paxton. Sheffield is one of the top pitching prospects in the game - a player the Yankees refused to move out in previous trades.It's a win-win for both teams, and it's safe to assume it's just the first of many big time moves for the Yankees and Mariners.
