YourKock'sReallyGreat Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 For doing steroids. He is claming medication given to him by his doctor. I know that there is a baseball thread but nobody post in it and I wanted to create this thread so it would get some attention. People come on the site and look and see Baseball thread and go whatever. Dodgers have had a huge start going 13-0 at home and like 21-8 overall. This should have a huge impact on their young developing offense and team. He is going to be out until around July 4th. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4148907 Edit. This is the greatest day in Yankee history since Aaron Boone hit the walkoff homer off of Wakefield in game 7 of the 2003 ALCS. Manny being Manny just tainted the 2004 and 2007 Red Sox World Series teams.
YourKock'sReallyGreat Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Posted May 7, 2009 espn.com However, two sources told ESPN's T.J. Quinn and Mark Fainaru-Wada that the drug used by Ramirez is HCG -- human chorionic gonadotropin. HCG is a women's fertility drug typically used by steroid users to restart their body's natural testosterone production as they come off a steroid cycle. It is similar to Clomid, the drug Bonds, Giambi and others used as clients of BALCO.
Matt Young Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 Yes, he tested positive for a fertility drug. Not steroids.
YourKock'sReallyGreat Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Posted May 7, 2009 Yes, he tested positive for a fertility drug. Not steroids. And there is a reason why he used it.
Masked Heel Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Yep its cuz he loves the Octomom and wanted to be just like her with a big family
cabbageboy Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Yeah, read between the lines. It was a fertility drug where the main reason a man would use it is because he's cycling off the juice. As far as this tainting the Red Sox 2004 and 07 teams, I don't really think so. If Manny had been caught doing this with Boston, then maybe so. But there's no way of 100% knowing that he was doing this stuff while with the Red Sox. As in maybe he hooked up to some BALCO type group in L.A. Besides, how can a Yankees fan be so thrilled about it tainting the Red Sox, when Roger Clemens was likely doing roids for a couple of World Series winners?
YourKock'sReallyGreat Posted May 8, 2009 Author Report Posted May 8, 2009 Because all I heard from Red Sox fans were that the Yankees cheated. Sorry but Manny just didn't decide at the age of 37 to start cheating.
JayCon Posted May 17, 2009 Report Posted May 17, 2009 Red Sox fans really might be the scum of the universe.

Also, not defending Clemens or anything, but I think a position player who is one of the better hitters of all time and protects the entire lineup day after day has a bit more of an impact than a starting pitcher who pitches once every 4-5 days.
