NEW YORK (AP) -Free agent minor league pitcher Michael Feliz has been suspended for 50 games following a positive test for stanozolol under baseball's minor league drug program.

The suspension will start when he signs with a major league organization, the commissioner's office said Thursday.

Twelve players have been suspended this year under the minor league program.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
