Earlier today, the Cleveland Indians revealed that outfielder Abraham Almonte would serve an 80 game suspension after testing positive for Boldenone, a performance-enhancing drug that violates Major League Baseball’s Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program.
Following the news, fans immediately went to Twitter to vent their frustrations and disappointments with Almonte, a player who went from being relatively unknown to one of the Tribe's potential starting center fielders in 2016.
If you have no problem cheating your way to success, I can't get down with that. Abraham Almonte wasn't really that good even with steroids.

Unreal. I liked Abraham Almonte. Just another Cleveland mishap.

Looks like he just made an additional $2mil thanks to Abraham Almonte's dumb decision https://t.co/kgZGkZF2k7

I had really talked myself into Abraham Almonte on the fat side of the platoon. Pretty big loss, mainly b/c he was best in-house CF option.

Do the right thing and cut Abraham Almonte right now. @Indians he was a faker and liar. What he did last year was fake.

And then there's... this? What? No.
Whoa, Abraham Almonte got suspended for PEDs. Incoming trade for Carl Crawford.
