Hardbopjazz Posted April 4, 2005 Report Posted April 4, 2005 (edited) Alex Scnchez of the D-ray tested positive for steroids. 1 Down and many to go. Edited April 4, 2005 by Hardbopjazz Quote
Dan Gould Posted April 4, 2005 Report Posted April 4, 2005 He's not "banned", he's suspended for ten days. And he hardly qualifies as a poster child for steroids: 4 homers in 1300 lifetime at bats. It makes me wonder whether he's being honest when he says he hasn't juiced. What will it say about any testing program if its demonstrated that some legal supplement turned out to trigger the positive result? Yeah, athletes are responsible for what they put in their bodies ... but the whole idea here is to find and punish CHEATERS, and a guy whose game is all about speed, not power, doesn't strike me as someone who actually had the requisite intent of getting an unfair advantage. Not saying that he couldn't be juicing, but this is definitely not the guy MLB expected to be the first to test positive. Quote
Noj Posted April 4, 2005 Report Posted April 4, 2005 Among active players, this lead-off batter is third behind two pitchers for fewest HR per at bat. Quote
