Pedro Martinez added his own take to the Fernando Tatis Jr. failed drug test topic on Tuesday.

The San Diego Padres star was suspended for 80 games after testing positive for the banned substance Clostebol. Tatis was on the injury list at the time and working his way back from a broken wrist which was likely suffered in a motorcycle crash over the winter in the Dominican Republic.

Martinez added his name to the list of players defending the young infielder and placed the blame on the Padres while talking about the suspension on TBS.

"Since he got hurt, San Diego has been on top of him, and this is where I have to give him a pass, because San Diego should have known what this kid is putting in his body–whether it was [for] ringworm, whether it was flu, or whatever he put in his body–he is still valuable to the organization," the Baseball Hall of Famer said. "The Padres need to know exactly what he puts on 24/7."

"I should have used the resources available to me in order to ensure that no banned substances were in what I took. I failed to do so," he said.

He added he was "completely devastated."
