    Couldn't it still possibly just be in his bloodstream or whatever from the first time, or no?

      I don't think so.

      He tested positive last year. I'm sure whatever it was wasn't in his system anymore.

      Also, it's not exactly 100% that this is steroids on both counts. It could be cocaine the first time and then steroids. It could be cocaine both times. It could even be cocaine the first time and something totally different the second. It doesn't even have to be cocaine. You get the point.
      "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

          Does anyone else notice that the majority of those getting suspended are Dominican/Hispanic? That has got to be more than just a coincidence.

          I wonder if the MLB is doing a good enough job letting these guys know, in their own language, exactly what they aren't supposed to be taking. If anyone has ever been around Dominican/Hispanic players, especially in the lower levels, these guys don't speak a shred of English.
          Overall satisfaction also makes the decline!!!!!!!!!!!!

            We're an equal opportunity drug employer.....
            We take other peoples druggies(Keith Hernandez from the Cards)
            We make our own(Dwight and Darryl)
            and we help others nurture their very own druggies(these two clowns in the news recently!)

            Baseball needs to wake up and hand the union their hat. It's becoming quite a joke in regards to drug use. Either blast the union and get harsh on it(this 100 game suspension is good..but it's a MINOR LEAGUER not a MLBPA player) or just allow it. It's pitiful with the "in between" stance MLB is taking.
