More Biogenesis Suspensions Forthcoming

[reedjohnsonfan]

He was already a great power hitter when he played in Cuba, so yes, I'd be surprised.

 

Don't they have access to some stuff in Cuba? It's possible.

[reedjohnsonfan]

Stuff? Weed, it's possible, lol.

 

Haha they basically no weed at all there, HGH though maybe.

[Dick_Pole]

Chris Davis? EE? (Hope not) Stanton?

 

f*** Chris Davis, the entire 25-man roster of the Orioles, immediate 50 game suspension

 

Screw it...entire 40-man roster....can't leave anything to chance.

Stuff? Weed, it's possible, lol.

 

If you're caught with any s*** there it's a long prison sentence. Cuba is the safest place for any tourist to go. Dictatorships are awesome....too bad it's a commie one.

"Dictatorships are awesome"

 

Possibly the most non politically correct statement ever issued on this board lol

 

And yea f*** the O's

[CJ-Freeway]

Lol @ Stanton needing steroids, most powerful hitter in baseball.

 

Just taking wild guesses. Nothing personal.

This has some great information about the scandal as a whole.

Thanks for the link. These guys appear to be the type of writers that at least see steroids as science as well (I consider PEDs to be no different than any other technological advancement, which allows athletes to improve). I doubt I'll read their book (until I can get it on tape) but I'll check out their online content for sure.

One of the guy's arrested with Bosch was Juan Carlos Nunez, who had worked for the major baseball agency ACES-- which represented Melky Cabrera and Nelson Cruz, among many others-- and was linked to several up-and-coming Dominican players.

 

ACE clients include David Wright, Dustin Pedroia, Gio Gonzalez, Joaquin Benoit, Grant Balfour, Brandon Phillips, Marlon Byrd and Matt Joyce.

I could see Byrd being named. Wasn't Gio named before, but not suspended?

It is likely just coincidence but the sudden flood of studs from Cuba is suspicious.

[HERPDERP]

I could see Benoit, Phillips and Balfour (roidrage) being users

 

aaaaaaand this is how rumors start

[HERPDERP]

I wonder if angrioter is actually a buscone and also provides young DR's with supplements ;o

[TheHurl]

I could see Byrd being named. Wasn't Gio named before, but not suspended?

 

yeah Gio volunteered for both blood and urine tests just days after the reports came out.

[burlingtonbandit]

The Reddit link suggests that steroids are very big in Cuba. Does anyone think Puig or Cespedes gets named in the report? I would not doubt them to be on roids considering just how massive they are.

"You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Then who the hell else are you talking... you talking to me? Well I'm the only one here. Who the f*** do you think you're talking to?"

(I could have used Cespedes or Abreu I know, but picking on Puig is like a sport unto itself now)

[Orgfiller]

Steroids have never really been an issue in Cuba, I would expect them to be extremely difficult to acquire even if there is someone that can supply the players. You don't need to use PED's to hit well in the Cuban National League, however whether they got some under-the-table substance once they defected is entirely possible. Players like Abreu, Cespedes and Chapman were already beasts in Cuba (and international play as well), so it's not like for them to succeed in the MLB was completely out of the blue, good baseball players will be good anywhere they play.
