Astros: Singleton and Deetz suspended after failing drug tests

Not that it really reflects on the organization, but two Astros minor leaguers are suspended after failing a drug test. According to JJ Cooper, Dean Deetz and Jon Singleton are suspended after failing a drug test.

Only one of those two players were projected to be a factor with the Astros in 2018. While Singleton is a former top prospect acquired in the Roy Oswalt deal, his career has stalled out. As much as I rooted for him to succeed, things just didn’t work out for him.
