Rockies infielder Omar Quintanilla suspended 50 games for PED use at Triple-A

Omar Quintanilla, who played 216 games for the Rockies from 2005-2009 before spending all of this season at Triple-A, has been suspended 50 games after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance called Methylhexanamine. According to my extensive research on Methylhexanamine (read: Wikipedia) it’s intended to be used as a nasal decongestant but is also marketed as a dietary supplement and “was implicated as a stimulant used by five Jamaican athletes in 2009.” Quintanilla hit just .220 with two homers and a .567 OPS in 559 total plate appearances for the Rockies and the 5-foot-9, 190-pound infielder has been limited to just 34 games at Triple-A this season because of injuries. And now he’ll never get into the Hall of Fame.
