Admitted drug cheat Melky Cabrera has been slapped with a 50-game suspension for violating Major League Baseball's drug policy. Major League Baseball's commissioners office announced Wednesday that the San Francisco Giants outfielder, who was MVP of the all-star game, has tested positive for testosterone. The Dominican native Cabrera is having his best season in the majors with a .346 batting average, 11 homers and 60 runs batted in. Cabrera admitted using performance-enhancing drugs and said he would not appeal the suspension. "My positive test was the result of my use of a substance I should not have used," Cabrera said. "I accept my suspension under the Joint Drug Program and I will try to move on with my life." The Giants signed Cabrera to a one-year deal in January after he was acquired from Kansas City in a trade. Cabrera was a career .275 hitter in seven pro seasons with the Yankees, Braves and Royals entering this year.
