Philadelphia Phillies reliever Jose Alvarado has been suspended 80 games without pay for violating Major League Baseball\'s drug policy.

The hard-throwing left-hander tested positive for exogenous testosterone, which is a performance-enhancing substance, MLB said in its statement Sunday.

The suspension is effective immediately. By rule, Alvarado will also be ineligible for the postseason this year.
