Steroids hit MLB again with A-Rod

Yes, the very player the Yankees rely on these days got away with steroids use six years ago.

You just know that people are already anticipating for the coming 2009 MLB baseball season when they start talking about baseball as early as the conclusion of the football season.

And since talking about baseball is as synonymous as talking about anabolic steroids, it was no surprise that the early topics that come out every time baseball fans start talking about their favorite sport pertains to another dude who injected the prohibited drug on his ass.

This time, we have Alex Rodriguez, the New York Yankees third baseman, a guy who once paraded around with Madonna and probably the only one who has a physique that yells ‘’steroids use.’’

Other than Barry Bonds of course.

Sources claim that Alex Rodriguez may have gotten away with the use of anabolic steroids. The New York Yankees star was tested positive for testosterone and Primobolan, an anabolic steroid, during the 2003 season when he won the AL home run title and the MVP award.

He was playing for the Texas Rangers then.

Fortunately for Alex Rodriguez, there were no penalties for a positive result then. When A-Rod was asked for comment about the rumors, he simply said, ‘’you’ll have to talk to the union.’’ When asked if he had an explanation for the positive test result, A-Rod simply answered, ‘’I’m not saying anything.’’

Hee hee…

Primobolan is an injected or orally administered drug that improves strength and maintains lean muscle with minimal bulk development and a few side effects. Obviously, it is not an approved prescription drug in the United States and A-Rod, according to some sources, was well aware that he tested positive for it six years ago.

Still, that didn’t stop him from denying using anabolic steroids in a ‘’60 Minutes’’ interview he had back in 2007, when steroids in baseball started becoming obvious.
