    Padres minor leaguer suspended 50 days

    performance "enhancing" drugs substance abuse.

    http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/story/9495896

    "enhancing" in quotes because not much was really "enhanced"

    Ellis was 0-1 with a 7.36 ERA in five relief appearances for Double-A Mobile.

    We've been getting quite a few minors in our system getting caught with steroids.

    That's three that I can think of. (Clay Hensley was one of them)

    he did it once, in the minors.

    I don't think he's done it since, but I don't know how many tests he's had since.

    Clay Hensley is the only one of the entire bunch that I knew before the incident.

    And the ironic part of it is...I didn't know Clay got busted till long after he got busted

    15 day suspension.

    Says he was released, I assume we resigned him.

    TY.......very interesting.......I would like to know if he's clean right now....I think if you pop once......all future test should be made public to help show legitimacy of the testing program....

    If he's clean now, I'm cool with him......if he fails again, he should never play MLB again....

    Lets just hope this is all behind us and him. The last thing we need is another player testing positive for banned substances.

    Well I sure hope our franchise doens't try and hide it, or attempt to legitimize it some how like a few out there........if a Padre pops.....hammer them into submission, pops twice.....boot them from MLB if possible
