Ortiz, Ramirez Named in Steroids Documents
Current Red Sox slugger David Ortiz, along with former Sox star Manny Ramirez were among the 104 players who tested positive in anonymous testing procedures back in 2003. The two players join Alex Rodriquez, Miguel Tijada, and Roger Clemens in having their names leaked from the report which specifies that the players’ names would not be released.
The leak adds to Ramirez’s troubles as he begins to bounce back from a 50-game suspension from earlier in the season after testing positive for a female fertility drug that is on the MLB’s list of banned substances. As for Ortiz, this is the first tick on his otherwise flawless record, though some have speculated that his performance might be aided by PEDs.
This is just another in a string of many, many steroids stories to surface in the past 5 years, and it feels like the fans are getting numb to the controversy. Regardless, it should be interesting to see how the former dynamic duo from Boston handle the newly discovered information. Grab some Red Sox tickets or Dodgers tickets today and find out.
