Matt Karchner pitched for two teams in Major League Baseball between 1995 and

2000, the Chicago Cubs and the Chicago White Sox. Members of my investigative staff

contacted him as part of our effort to interview former major league players.

Karchner said that during spring training in 1999, he observed two of his Chicago

Cubs teammates inject themselves with steroids in an apartment that Karchner was sharing with

them. Karchner declined to identify the players. He said that one of the players brought the

steroids to the apartment but was afraid of needles and therefore asked the second player to

administer the shot. The second player injected the first player with steroids in the buttocks and

then injected himself.

Later that season, Karchner was offered steroids by certain of his Cubs

teammates. Karchner would not disclose the names of players who offered him steroids, but he

said that the conversations he had with them involved the general cost of steroids and discussions

of “stacking” to build lean muscle necessary for pitchers. Karchner did not report either of these

incidents to anyone at the time.

 

HAWT.

 

This makes it sound like these guys shared the same needle, which would be the only thing I do not approve of in this quoted staement.

Aaron and Maris are only clean cause there was no testing.

 

I love it when people throw out statements like that with absolutely no proof to back it up.

 

There's just as much non-proof that they didn't use any of the "helpers" of their respective eras.

Kent Mercker

Kent Mercker pitched for nine different teams in Major League Baseball from

1989 to 2006, the Atlanta Braves, Baltimore Orioles, Cleveland Indians, Cincinnati Reds,

St. Louis Cardinals, Boston Red Sox, Anaheim Angels, Colorado Rockies, and Chicago Cubs.

Radomski stated that he sold one kit of human growth hormone to Mercker in

October 2002. Mercker had recently undergone surgery and, according to Radomski, was

seeking human growth hormone because he believed it might accelerate his recovery.407

Radomski sent the growth hormone by overnight mail; Mercker paid by check.

Radomski produced one check from Mercker to Radomski in the amount of

$1,600. The check number and date are not legible. It is included in the Appendix and shown

below.

Brian Roberts

Brian Roberts is an infielder who has played for the Baltimore Orioles since 2001.

He has been selected to two All-Star teams.

Roberts and Larry Bigbie were both rookies in 2001. According to Bigbie, both

he and Roberts lived in Segui’s house in the Baltimore area during the latter part of that season.

When Bigbie and Segui used steroids in the house, Roberts did not participate.

According to Bigbie, however, in 2004 Roberts admitted to him that he had

injected himself once or twice with steroids in 2003. Until this admission, Bigbie had never

suspected Roberts of using steroids.

In order to provide Roberts with information about these allegations and to give

him an opportunity to respond, I asked him to meet with me; he declined.
