Fernando Tatis Jr. was suspended 80 games for using performance-enhancing drugs, and a Hall of Fame pitcher believes that part of the blame remains with MLB.

The MLB commissioners office announced on Friday that Tatis would be suspended after testing positive for the banned anabolic steroid Clostebol. His suspension will last through the remainder of the 2022 season and will force him to miss the beginning of the 2023 season.

During Tuesdays MLB on TBS Tuesday Night show, Pedro Martinez said that he was disappointed in Tatis. But Martinez also blamed MLB for not providing enough education to players in the Dominican Republic before coming to the United States on how to avoid ending up in Tatis situation.

Major League Baseball shouldve taken one percent of what they do, and they have all 30 academies in the Dominican Republic, and they dont do enough to educate those kids about medications, trainers, Martinez said. We dont have any ambassador in the Dominican Republic telling those players what to do, unless you do it willingly like I sometimes do.
