    minor league drug suspensions

    http://oakland.athletics.mlb.com/NAS...&c_id=mlb#list

    Some guy on the A's that I never heard of was suspended for 60 games, but one of our stud prospects, Javier Herrera, was hit with a first time offense

    You have to wonder if the organizations are involved. 8 from the mariners? 7 players from a few other teams? Seems like a little more than isolated incedents.

    I saw an article at the Yahoo sports page that said this list of 38 were from AZ ST. Apparently, the FL ST has not reported as of yet......

    Holy crap, look at how many were from the AL West...what a 'roided-up division.

    Short cuts will not pay off any longer.

    I hope these kids learn before they make it to the big show, if they even make it now. A misfortunate tag may go along with some of them.
