Little Sarge in big trouble?
For the few of you out there who were truly bummed that the Sox didn't try for Gary Matthews Jr. (I'm looking at you, Cowley), he's one of seven athletes connected to a steroid bust conducted by the Albany DA in Orlando Fla., according
to a story by the Albany Times Union:
The Times Union has learned that investigators in the year-old case, which has been kept quiet until now, uncovered evidence that testosterone and other performance-enhancing drugs may have been fraudulently prescribed over the Internet to current and former Major League Baseball players, National Football League players, college athletes, high school coaches, and a former Mr. Olympia champion and another top contender in the bodybuilding competition.
The customers include Los Angeles Angels centerfielder Gary Matthews Jr., according to sources with knowledge of the investigation.
