Jonathan Gray, the University of Oklahoma pitcher and No. 2 prospect heading
into this year's MLB Rule 4 draft, tested positive for the medication
Adderall during baseball's predraft drug testing program, according to
multiple sources familiar with the details of Gray's test.
The positive test will not result in a suspension, but will make Gray subject
to additional follow-up testing once he begins his pro career, according to a
source with Major League Baseball. Adderall comprises salts of two
amphetamines and is banned by MLB unless the player has a valid therapeutic
use exemption. Multiple sources indicated that Gray did not have a
prescription for the drug.
A message asking Gray for comment was not returned.
Gray, a 6-foot-4, 239-pound junior from Chandler, Okla., is likely to be one
of the first five players taken in Thursday's Rule 4 draft. One source told
ESPN.com that he did not think Gray's failed test would harm his draft stock.
Adderall use without an exemption is prohibited under the Joint Drug
Agreement between Major League Baseball and its players' union. More than 110
players were granted exemptions in 2012, according to the independent program
administrator's report released in November. Philadelphia Phillies catcher
Carlos Ruiz was suspended for the first 25 games of the 2013 season after he
tested positive for Adderall for the second time without a valid exemption.
Gray spent his freshman season at Eastern Oklahoma State College, after which
he transferred to Oklahoma. He previously was drafted by Kansas City in the
13th round in 2010 and by the New York Yankees in the 10th round in 2011. He
ranks second among Division I starters in strikeouts this season with 138,
and takes a 1.59 ERA in 119 innings into this weekend's playoff
super-regional against LSU in Baton Rouge, La. He pitched once in the
Blacksburg regional, throwing a complete game against Coastal Carolina,
striking out 11 in a 7-3 Oklahoma victory.
Major League Baseball's Rule 4 draft begins Thursday at 7 p.m. ET. The
Houston Astros have the first overall pick for the second year in a row,
followed by the Chicago Cubs and Colorado Rockies.
