One, I have already contacted the Players Association to confirm if this report is true. I have just been told that the report is true. Based on the way I have lived my life, I am surprised to learn I tested positive.

"Two, I will find out what I tested positive for. And, three, based on whatever I learn, I will share this information with my club and the public. You know me -- I will not hide and I will not make excuses."




So let me get this straight. He is basically saying that he will admit to whatever he got caught for doing. LOL

Taking the cue from Pettite and Giambi. Smart man, but would have looked a lot better had he admitted it from the start instead of trying to come across as a clean player in spring training.

This sport makes me sick.
