Manny Ramirez tests positive for PEDs

Well another offensive superstar from the most recent generation tests positive for steriods. But I can't figure out if he only started using them in LA as why wasn't he caught in Boston. If he just started in LA then that seems stupid after he drew out his contract situation for months longer than it should have been. And apparently a ton of people on his teams though he was clean.

Yeah I really don't feel like debating the merits of the suspension, so I'll just 2nd what you said.

But this a huge gut punch. Not a week ago I was making an argument to a friend that Manny was in the untouchable class in regards to PED use. sigh

This caught me a bit off-guard. Perhaps it shouldn’t, but he was never part of that ‘group’ of players in my mind.

That he doesn’t give a shit. Or why would he be playing at all? He’s made enough money that he could sit on his butt all day if he wanted.

Manny may not care about anything else, but he cares about baseball. I don’t think he could achieve the level of success he has otherwise.

I agree.

Manny certainly indulges in strange and childish, and in some cases unacceptable, behavior that an average man who cared about the game would not.

But I’ve also read articles about how hard he works on things like batting eye training – and I think he really does care.

From Boston

Everyone in Boston knew that Manny really did care about baseball a lot. I remember reading a Globe piece a year or two ago about Manny’s off-season work outs (he was training with Youk that winter) and his regimen was impressive. We knew Manny cared deeply about playing ball because (1) he only whined when baseball became frustrating to him or during the off-season and (2) he shut up when it was time to play and he was playing well.

Anyway, I’m slightly surprised. And I do wonder about David Ortiz.

An apology:

Ramirez apologized to his Dodgers teammates, owners and Manager Joe Torre. "L.A. is a special place to me and I know everybody is disappointed," he said. "So am I. I’m sorry about this whole situation."

Granted, he apologized for “the situation” and not for using the banned substance but it still seems like more than you usually see from those with their hands in cookie jars.

Assuming that he was speaking without a script, he did slip “Manny” in there perhaps subconciously distancing his apology from “everybody.” But I’m gonna give him the benefit of the doubt here. Not for testing positive, mind you, but for this apology.

Was he coaxed into giving this apology? Perhaps. But I don’t get the feeling that he was coached into it.
