The Ginger Kid Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 With testing, this sort of boggles the mind, unless some players are somehow getting away with it, so others are willing to rolling the dice. Huge hit to the Gigantes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awful having one of baseball's "stars" playing dirty. And there will always be that year where the AS MVP got busted. The 50-game penalty must not be enough of a deterrent to not take a chance. Make it a year, and see if that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 At least he is being honest. Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal Cabrera takes responsibility in statement.

The guy is putting up career numbers in a contract year at 35. I hope not, but who knows what these guys do. I'm sure the Sox aren't immune.
