    New player busted for Roids!

    Is it Clemens? No Is it Damon? No

    It's.............. Mike Morse
    http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2154494

    An apologetic Morse said in a statement the positive steroid test was a result of trace amounts of the drug lingering in his system from "an enormous mistake" he made in November 2003 while in the minor leagues.

    "This positive test was due to the fact there were still some remnants of the steroid left in my system from the 2003 offseason," he said.

    Morse said he took steroids in 2003 after tearing his thigh muscle. He was suspended under the minor league policy in May 2004 and "promised never to make the same mistake again."

    He used to be in our minor league system. He got traded during the Garcia trade.



    What a crappy trade that was for the M's. Olivo sucked, Morse is on steroids, and Jeremy Reed hasn't turned into anything.

        At least he admitted it. Although I didn't think steroids could stay in your system for that long. I thought 6 months at most, but the arbitration panel sided with his story and did say that the evidence showed he hasn't used since 2003.

          At least he has the balls to admit it.

                  hmm....so that's why he can hit but when it comes to defense he belongs in the low Minors!

                  heh, only joking. I'm an m's fan and I haven't really enjoyed watching Morse play this season. He had a nice average for a while there but never really got anything done, and I can't tell you how many bad plays and errors I've seen the guy make so far. I mean, if I had my choice between Morse, a guy who can hit .280 or Bloomquist, a guy who can hit .260 but runs the bases really well and plays good D, I'd take the lower average and the Defense. Maybe it's just because us M's fans have been spoiled on D. I mean we had Boone, King Cammy, we have Ichiro, now Beltre, Wilson behind the plate? Watching Morse up the middle and in the OF gives me a headache....and so this news doesn't really suprise me that much.

                    Well at least he admitted it, but let's not give him too much credit for just that, he still cheated.

                      I'm hoping that wasnt the big player that was going to be announced as using steroids.
