Other names in 2003 test to be leaked?

[E.J.]

I would love to see Oswalt on the list. That would be hilarious.

I want Neifi Perez on the list. Just to show that their performance-enhancing aspect is questionable in baseball.

 

Don't forget, his career was essentially ended by a series of suspensions for the use of PEDs... amphetamines rather than steroids, but still...

Not to mention that without them, his career might have ended in AA.

Exactly. I don't get why people use the "well it didn't help him break records" arguement against the notion that PEDs enhance performance. The Sports Guy's Yankee fan friend tried to brush off the Giambi/ARod/Pettite issues by saying that if these things really helped then "I could take them and hit 50 HR." That's not the freaking point. Guys take them just to get promoted up the minor league ranks. There's tremendous financial incentive (not to mention competitive) just to take them to reach the majors. It's not just about hitting 70 HR. If a guy has the talent to play with some of the best in the world, but not the skill to deserve a spot on a major league roster, a slight increase in performance could wind up netting him a million dollars over his career.

Joe Borowski is that just that guy.

Yeah.

 

Joe is one of those guys you wonder about. Of course, these days EVERY player is one of those guys you wonder about.

 

 

I don't think the release of these names will ruin the sport. But I'm pretty sure this is the last time the league will be able to get away with doing a series of anonymous tests just for informational purposes. Nobody is going to believe it again.

I'm as curious as the next guy, but didn't MLB promise that they wouldn't leak any names? Kind of (read as: very) shady on their part.

Yeah...they aren't the ones leaking the info. They never intended to release any of these names.

[mcgoobs]

i'd give anything for jeter to be on this list.

 

I'd give anything for Greg Maddux, David Wells, and Hector Villanueva to be on the list.

 

why?

 

Pretty sure he's joking.

 

I was.

[badger1679666666]

Please don't let Kerry Wood be on that list...

 

[biittner77]

The fact that they knew this test was coming and still over 100 players failed makes me wonder how many were able to get clean in time to pass. Even if it was just those 104 guys that's still about 3-4 from every team.

 

I would love to see Jeter's name on that list just to see how the media would find a way for it to be OK for him to do it. "He wants to win that badly."
