Major League Baseball Announces Collaboration With Latin American Trainers

Major League Baseball announced a new collaboration with Latin American trainers, formally known as the Trainer Partnership Program.

The two parties will focus on eliminating the use of performance-enhancing substances by amateur players in the sport, as well as improving compliance with MLB rules.

The voluntary program will commence in the Dominican Republic and Venezuela, where a combined 46 recommended trainers have agreed to enroll their respective players in MLB’s drug testing policy, among other mandated requirements.

Drug testing began this week ahead of MLB’s first showcase as part of the Trainer Partnership Program on Sept.
