"I apologize to the fans, my teammates, and to the San Diego Padres," Grandal said in a statement. "I was disappointed to learn of my positive test and under the Joint Drug Program, I am responsible for what I put into my body. I must accept responsibility for my actions and serve my suspension."

Baker was a non-tender candidate but will now see half the playing time.
