From Michael Schmidt (NY Times):
The commissioner’s office has decided not to discipline Alex Rodriguez in light of its investigation into whether he lied about his use of performance-enhancing drugs in a meeting with baseball officials in March, according to people in baseball with knowledge of the matter.
[...]
From the AP:
An appeals court ruled Wednesday that federal agents were wrong to seize the infamous drug list and samples of 104 Major League Baseball players who allegedly tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003.In a 9-2 vote, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with three lower court judges who chastised [...]
Ever since David Ortiz was outed as a steroid user last week, there has been a general cry by baseball fans and former players that the entire list of 103 names be released. The argument is that the good of the game is at stake, and that it would be best to rip off the [...]
(This is a post that appeared yesterday as a guest post on RAB)
With the recent revelation that we now may add David Ortiz’s name to the ever-growing list of PED abusers, we come back to a nagging and somewhat uncomfortable question for Yankee fans. What do we make of all this? Steroids are [...]
From ESPN:
Bronson Arroyo, a former Boston Red Sox teammate of Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz, said he would not be surprised to find his name on a list of 104 ballplayers who tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003, after he had heard a then-legal supplement he was using was tainted with steroids, [...]
Michael Schmidt at the NY Times has the story. Apparently, both David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez were on the same list that A-Rod was on in 2003.
The information about Ramirez and Ortiz emerged through interviews with multiple lawyers and others connected to the pending litigation. The lawyers spoke anonymously because the testing information [...]
From Joel Sherman:
Here is what it moved me to say: I hope he is doing this clean. That is near impossible to know since, for example, HGH is not tested for. But if he is doing this clean — and, again, let’s hope so — it would reassert how foolish he was to [...]
Pete Abe brought up an interesting thought over the weekend, and I wanted to address it here:
Alex claims he used for three years. But none of us have any idea whether that is actually true or not. There are dozens of performance-enhancing substances out there for which no tests exist. It’s a good [...]
Selena Roberts made the following accusation to the MLB Network’s Bob Kostas:
“He was really born into the steroid era,” Roberts said. “He was a child of the Canseco era, too. So you have somebody who was born into it, who is in it and is of it, and I think there are so [...]
Mlb.com is reporting that Manny Ramirez has tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs, and will be suspended for 50 games. I’m sure we’ll be hearing all about this on ESPN for the next few months. I’m sure there will be a lot of denials and accusations, and Manny will deny having taken steroids in the [...]
