This is just so ugly. It’s bad enough when a guy tests positive for a performance-enhancing drug in this day and age, but to do it twice? That’s one of those “if this is true, that’s unbelievably shameful” situations.
The report, from Jeff Passan at ESPN, is that Atlanta Braves outfielder Jurickson Profar has done just that:
BREAKING: Atlanta Braves designated hitter Jurickson Profar is facing a 162-game suspension after testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug for the second time, sources told ESPN. News free at ESPN: t.co/Od2Cht2QUO
— Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) March 3, 2026Coming off a career year in San Diego in 2024, Profar signed a three-year, $42 million contract last offseason with the Braves. He subsequently tested positive for PEDs, was suspended for half of a season, and hit .245/.353/.434/122 wRC+ after returning.
Suddenly, the Braves are down an outfield starter and an impactful bat, without any real time or market opportunity to replace him. It’s a huge blow to a club that is already facing injury issues all over its rotation, and was nevertheless seen as a top-tier contender in the NL.
Profar was at one time considered among the best prospects in baseball. Injuries piled up in his younger days and kinda set his career off course, but he had rebounded here in his early-30s. Now that all gets cast in a very different light, and his future in MLB is in doubt.
