i was thinking the same thing....but mistakes do happen...and would be a shame for someone to be banned wrongly....

Sounds like the test happened around a month ago.

Andrew Baggarly of CSNBayArea.com hears that the test happened around the All-Star break and has been hung up in the appeals process since.

Is Melky the first guy to ever flunk the test and not come up with some lame excuse? I can't recall anyone else doing that.

He wasn't balling like that anywhere. In a full season with Atlanta he bated like .250 with 4 home runs.

A Rod really didn't have a choice but to admit it. He tested positive for multiple steroids and testosterone in tests that were supposed to be anonymous and confidential and there was no way to dispute the results. He denied for years that he had ever taken PEDs though until the test results were leaked.

Weren't there more players that tested positive and weren't named? I always wondered how many big names were on that list.

Supposedly there was nearly 100 on the list. But very few ever leaked. A-Rod did and I think that's where Pettitte's name came out.

Hopefully one day the list will be revealed.

Great, Lincecum is pitching badly against Washington today. Was hoping they'd give Atlanta some help.

ooooooooh right right....that was bullshit lol but i mean, who is going to admit they are or did steroids without being accused?

if that list ever gets out, it will diminish the game so much years down the line... our whole era will be looked at differently...

Felix Hernandez has a perfect game through 6 innings vs. Tampa Bay.

Listening to the game online, Felix is just dominant.

Just 2 starts ago he shutout the Yankees, giving up just two hits at Yankee stadium.

Today:
8 IP
0 Hits
0 Runs
10 K's

Poor Hellickson is pitching great too. Gave up just 1 run on 5 hits and he's probably going to get a loss.

[ChadFL]

One out to go.

My stupid Sirius feed seems to be a couple minutes behind.
