San Diego Padres catcher Yasmani Grandal rejoined the team Tuesday after serving a 50-game suspension for testing positive for elevated levels of testosterone.
Grandal, 24, batted .306 in nine rehab games with Triple-A Tucson, with three doubles. He is coming off a rookie season in which he belted eight homers in 60 games, while hitting .297.
To make room on the roster, the Padres sent John Baker to Triple-A Tucson.
Fantasy Status:Grandal proved last year that he was good with the bat. If you need production at catcher, then he’s a good option moving forward.
