The latest suspension of Mejia, who last May was given an 80-game ban after testing positive for Stanozolol, is effective immediately, MLB said in a statement.

Martinez showing diminished power and run production in 2022, the Los Angeles Dodgers took a chance by giving him a $10 million deal for 2023. Martinez returned from an eight-day break to face the Milwaukee Brewers in the opener of a three-game series Tuesday, and the teams will meet again Wednesday at Los Angeles. In 17 career starts against the Brewers, Kershaw is 7-5 with a 2.97 ERA. Three Brewers pitchers saw action in the inning as the Dodgers sent 10 batters to the plate. "We make the play for the second out and it's probably a different inning," Brewers manager Craig Counsell said.

That means avoiding a two-game home sweep at the hands of the lowly crosstown-rival White Sox on Wednesday night. "We've just got to move on to (Wednesday)," Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks said. Assad didn't allow a baserunner over 1 2/3 scoreless innings of relief against the White Sox on July 26. Despite an overall rough season for the White Sox, Clevinger seems content with his current situation. It's uncertain if White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson will be available after he was scratched before Tuesday's game due to a stiff neck.
