BIGGEST BASEBALL SCANDAL EVER

NOBODY TALKS ABOUT ANYMORE

 

The 1919 Black Sox scandal, long regarded as the biggest ever scandal in baseball was done and gone with in relatively short order. Though one may never know it watching the 2014 World Series and related commentary, The Steroid / PED scandal rages on now more than 25 years since the ‘Bash Brothers’ and the 1989 Earthquake Series; it’s gone on so long now the names have changed from ‘Steroids’to ‘PEDs’  Today we are witnessing a GUARANTEED 10% of baseball players using ADDERALL, albeit legal, a Performance Enhancing Drug – not to mention many indicted players back in the game and, quite likely still using other PEDs of choice. Since Victor Conte’s insightful interviews -in which he  says upwards of 50% of players are now using PEDs – have been removed from youtube and other sources we will take a look back at Lance Williams and Mark Fainaru-wada Commonwealth interview while noting nothing much has changed since then… only the names and the type of PEDs.

How #SFGiants Really Won Their First Two World Series in 56 Years

*******************************************************************

ADDERALL 650It could be the biggest scandal in all of baseball. Bigger than 1919 Black Sox. But, but only if anyone shows interest  and does anything about it.  And now, of course, there’s ADDERALL, the legal PED that MLB admits to allowing use of by 10% of baseball, going back to beyond when Giants’ ANDRES TORRES popularized it in 2010.

One might say the San Francisco Giants appear have gotten away with TWO World Series Wins with just the KNOWN users MELKY,  TORRES, GUILLEN and MOTA and now possibly a third World Series victory in five years if they continue on this apparent course .  And , they can likely attribute much of that to Victor Conte  and/or similar sources of PEDs (performance enhancing drugs). Conte just happens to live in the San Francisco Bay Area, not far from the Giant’s AT&T stadium. He
mentioned after the failed drug test and suspension of Giants’ Melky Cabrera how easy it is to beat the drug tests in baseball and that he was surprised Cabrera got caught, calling him ‘dumb and dumber.’  He explains ( attached video has since been mysteriously removed) how a player can inject up to 4 times the normal amount of testosterone one normally has in his body – and get away with it. He also menions a CRV(?) test that MLB could and should employ that will catch cheaters but , incredulously , Bud Selig and now , new MLB leadership  have shown no indication of interest. Meanwhile, the Giants seem to have stepped up their use of this or similar PEDs of choice as they continue knocking off the Big Boys – winning 15 of 17 playoff games in just five years!

Interesting choice of interviewers of Lance and Mark of ‘Game of Shadows’fame..Lurie is a noted sympathizer of steroid use, defends Bonds and Giants regularly as he broadcasts for them (NOW) but even then he was and is known as a liberal talk show host. 

 

 

We  remember back around 2002 when Barry Bonds actually told the media his intention to share ‘his secrets‘ with the team . But that was early and if people don’t pay attention or care about steroids they certainlly didn’t then. Well those secrets turned out to be steroids which took the Giants all the way to the World Series, which they lost to California Angels. Now Conte has told the world about the new testosterone and how anyone can improve his hitting, pitching, etc. with a small dose of this testosterone. And, the Giants haven’t missed a beatever since, it would appear. In fact,  they probably would have been in the series last year, if not for a couple of key late-season injuries to key players. It’s most astounding to this writer how the Giants have continued bringing in known and suspected users now for 10 years or more and even more surprising that competing teams have barely questioned the Giants otherworldly stats, eg Sandoval’s six homers in the short 2012 post season  and three off top pitcher Verlander  IN ONE GAME (after nnly hitting 12 homers all year), 37-year-old Scutaro’s near .400 BA since joining the Giants (after hitting only .268 with Colorado and never before hitting over .299 in a long career and other similar , startling performances.

 

 

NEW MLB ADDERALL LOOPHOLE  BLASTED BY DOCTOR,  MAY BE ACCELERATING PED USE IN  A NEW DIRECTION

 Associated Press 01/10/2009

 

Baseball authorized nearly 8 percent (now 10%) of its players to use drugs for ADHD last season, which allowed them to take otherwise banned stimulants. Five years later, MLB continues to allow players this particular PED, up from 2009.  Add the current known 10% to a generally accepted goodly number of testosterone and other PEDs of choice and there is definitely a problem in baseball – perhaps as high as the 50% figure mentioned by Balco’s Victor Conte.

 

A total of 106 exemptions for banned drugs were given to major leaguers claiming attention deficit hyperactivity disorder from the end of the 2007 season until the end of the 2008 season, according to a report released Friday by the sport’s independent drug-testing administrator.

 

Dr. Gary Wadler, chairman of the committee that determines the banned-substances list for the World Anti-Doping Agency, recommended an independent panel be established to review TUE requests.

 

“I’ve been in private practice for a lot of years. I can count on one hand the number of individuals that have ADD,” he said. “To say that (7.86 percent) of major league baseball players have attention deficit disorder is crying out for an explanation.”

 

Rob Manfred, baseball’s executive vice president of labor relations, said it would be a mistake to compare ADHD in baseball with statistics for the general population. We ask ‘why would it be a mistake? 

 

The National Institute of Mental Health estimates 3 percent to 5 percent of children have ADHD.  Few adults have the problem, yet 10% of MLB (adult) players are allowed the performance enhancing effects of Adderall.

ANDRES TORRES SF GIANTS’ ADD/Adderall Poster Boy

With ADDERALL, Torres went from a career .242 average to .270 in his big year with the Giants (2010), helping them to win the World Series, while on Adderall.

 

PEAVY ON ADDERALL?

Giants JAKE PEAVY is well known for his hyper activity, anxiety and outbursts on the mound. ADDERALL IS A LEGAL PED designed to help those with ADD (attention deficit disorder). Andres Torres of the Giants was a poster for boy for it and the drug not only helped him stay calm but aided his batting average by about 50 points in helping the Giants to their 2010 World Series victory.

 

PEAVY SUDDEN VELOCITY RISE, no hitter
If there’s a candidate today for Adderall it would be JAKE PEAVY.As we know 10% of MLB players are currently using the (legal) PED and it wouldn’t surprise at all if Peavy is one of them. That would certainly account for, at least in part, his dramatic performance turnaround since joing the Giants in August. He went from a 1-9 record with a 4.76  ERA at Boston to a 5-4 record and 2.17 ERA with the Giants.  We;re certainly not condoning Adderall, even by players who may  need the ADD drug, since it also acts as PED, significantly raising a players ability and numbers.  It’s very possible that after Torres’ success, a drug like Adderall could (have) become the drug of choice and pervasive on the Giants.

 

COCKROACHES

 

COCKROACHES, GM Sabean calls his Giants players cockroaches since you ‘can’t kill them. ‘We have called the Giants cockroaches for another reason. With the widespread use of PEDs in recent years, especially on  the Giants (with 23 indicted players since Bonds and 5 KNOWN previously indicted users on the team since 2010) we say the drugs like spread from player to player like cockroaches, eg it was after Torres started using Adderall that the Giants late season heroics began. Pure coincidence? Doubtful.

SF GIANTS’ FIELD OF SCHEMES – CABRERA TSHIRTS


RAMIFICATIONS OF MORE GIANTS ON PEDs

If other teams coming up against the San Francisco Giants really want an even playing fieldthey should keep on top of the Giants. Sad to say, even after Melky Cabrera’s drug bust -don’t be surprised to see him back for the playoffs- and Guilermo Mota’s reinstatement after his second illegal – there is reason to believe there could be at least another ortwo more tainted Giants on the team.

Simply consider the following:

Infielder Marcos Scutaro is 37 years old.He was batting .271 when the Giants acquired him mid season. He is hitting .341 since coming toh the Giants in a tough hitters’ ballpark especially as compared to Colorado. The Giants got Scutaro for next to nothing, a sixth rated minor league prospect, Charlie Culberson and cash. Scuator has been with three teams in three years.

Sounds alot like Melky Cabrera, right? But Melky was already had one big year before coming to the Giants Add the fact that Scuator is from Venezuela, one of the main countries, along with the domincan. where convicted ballplayers originate from- supposedly, the quest to do well in the majors and to bring glory and money back to the home country is the motivator. And, Scutaro is coming to a team with known users and a number of Venezuleans and Dominican players. One could say Scutaro has had only 200 ad bats with the Giants but that is nearly half a season worth and a seventy point batting rise over that long a period is no mere streak of luck. Blancoo has had similar streaks early in the season that would be questioned but that wasn’t evena 70 point rise over his past average.

Thih San Francisco. ere are others ont he team like Arias and pagan who are having significantly above average seasons again in a tough ballpark. One can now look back at Andre Torrez, who had an otherworldly season the year the Giants won the Seies.

Then there’s the long list of tainted players from Bonds’S gang to Jose Guillen, another convicted user during the Wrold Series year. You gotta wonder. Giant’s fans in liberal San Francisco welcome the entertainment at any cost. ‘Give the player a second and third chance’ they say… ‘ That’s baseball today ih San Francisco. I wouldn’t put it past GM Brian Sabean and the SF Giants and their ‘win at any cost’ attitude to find more players on testosterone or other substances. One cockroach on a team leads to two and four, etc… Kirk Gibson is the only other team member to far make an issue of the Giants and how a player like Cabrera has already had an unfair advantage, singlehandedly giving the Giants at least 5-10 victories this season. So they lose him; they just bring in another likely user, Scutaro, who is literally filling Cabrera’s numbers. Whether it’s turning up the PA louder than any other stadium to excite the fans or overstating it’s sellouts the Giants must be brought to the table of true justice or they will continue making a mockery of the game. Even if Sabean and the Giants aren’t techinically guilty of anything they are taking advantage of a weak baseball structure, thanks to Selig and Co, going after suspected or know users who other teams are more respectful to turn away. No other team comes close to spitting in the face of the National Pasttime.

Glaring Differences Between A’s and Giants Managers, Management

Glaring Differences between A’sand Giants Managers and Management   5-11

 

To Billy Beane, the manager may not make a difference   but  don’t tell that to suffering A’s fans, who after nearly four years have had  more than  enough of  Bob Geren.  Now, previous Beane managers Macha and Howe  are looking good, by comparison; at least they were winners.

MLB San Francisco Giants 2010 World Series Championship Carousel

Why would a manager continue NOT to play his best hitter, Ryan Sweeney (.364 as of 5-11) on a regular basis, at least while he’s hot?.

Instead ,  Geren continues to run out  ‘Mendoza line’  hitters like Ellis, DeJesus and Barton – and even worse, Geren is batting Barton second!.          A smart manager like Giants’ Bochy will play the hot hitters.  Geren just runs out the same players, hoping one day they’ll hit. GM Beane has his favorites and will resign an Ellis for 6  mill, saying we need his defense.   And,  don’t blame the low averages totally on the A’s  hitters, themselves.

I’ll bet just a manager change would bump up players’ averages.  These guys are not .200 hitters but, among other things, Geren doesn’t inspire.. He is  bland, deer-in-the-headlights kind of guy.       Perhaps they don’t have a lot of other choices – and Geren isn’t doing anything to inspire these hitters, As we’ve seen with Apier , Holliday and so many others, when we trade guys away away they suddenly get better!

A’s now have a lineup of yes men. As a caller to the great Rick Tittle  just said , the A’s have assembled a team of ‘yes’ players.  Gone are the Milton Bradleys. These guys won’t complain.  While hot hitting Sweeney sits, he doesn’t complain. Maybe the A’s need someone to speak up  and say…

Where’s the bunting? Where’s the clutch hitting? Where are the little extra s ? The A’s  pitching staff currently has a better ERA than the Giants and hitters are comparable but under-performing for above reasons. So, the A’s again are playing .500 ball  to the undoubted frustration of pitchers – and hitters, even if they won’t say it publicly.  The Giants are getting those walk-off games with late inning  strategy. Get a walk, put pressure on the pitcher. Steal a base, Sacrifice. Score a run and win the game, like last night 5-10 against Arizona, one of several walk off wins for the Gianits this past week.   (By the way, if the Diamondbacks were paying attention they could have reversed the winning run if they noticed one of the Giants ‘high-fiving’  Darren Ford  a few feet before he crossed the plate to score the winning run. Credit Rick Tittle for  paying attention to that).

So, Geren continues into his fourth year, without a winning record – the first manager under Beane to have a losing record – and  FOUR years…

GEREN ONLY NON-WINNING MANAGER UNDER BEANE – AND FOUR YEARS RUNNING – TIME FOR CHANGE

YOU WATCH – When Beane finally gets rid of his buddy, Geren, one day – it will have to happen unless Beane  leaves first -  the players’ averages and overall play WILL IMPROVE significantly. It’s hard to play for a minor league manager, a guy you don’t respect.

 

While we like Giant’s Bochy, the Giants  are winning against weak teams.  As mentioned, Arizona with another poor manager, Kirk Gibson, and the teams on the recent road trip, New York and Pittsburg.

As for Colorado, they really choked  In their two series against the Gaints and will certainly be gunning for them next time…    And, yes, the Giants are still playing on… dare I say it… yes, STEROIDS. Not all the players but the Giants continue to ‘win at any cost.’ Even after Barry Bonds, GM Brain Sabean continues to go for the Roids players .  After noting in previous blogs how convicted steroid user, Jose Guillen , brought in  last September , was enough to make the difference in the Giants going to the playoffs; then  with the addition of alleged users like Ross,  also brought in late in the year, Renteria, Uribe now we were reminded that Mota was a convicted user with the Mets , before the Giants acquired him  a couple years back.

This is not to say that  all these guys-and probably others-  are not still users, but once a user almost always a user, we say.   It’s likely another new Giant, Tejada , may have cleaned up his act – and it shows… The Giants probabl y wish he was still on the juice.  Look how Manny Ramirez  fooled everyone for years  – and got away with it once- only to finally quit baseball in frustration after he was caught a second time.

Isnt’ it inter esting how the Giants suddenly went from a .500 team through the first half of last year to  the world series after the acquisition of Ross and Guillen.  More than a coincidence I say.   Spread the goods around , just like Bonds  (Benitez, etc)  did back in ’03 the previous time they went to the playoffs.I  know I have no scientific proof what was actually going on with the Giants behind the scenes. I  just  see the many steroid connections with the Giants – for more than with any other team -  and it has gone on for many years.  I suspected Bonds in the beginning while others were still ignoring his quickly-expanding physique. And now, we’re starting to see injuries in guys like Ross, who was one of the sudden  superstars of last September and the playoffs, and even Brain Wilson – who really knows?

I know  most people today  – especially Giants fans – could care less whether their players  use steroids.   ( And I know, you could say the A’s started it all back in the 80s with McGuire and Conseco – and , as a former A’s fan, I lost all respect for the A’s of those years, including manager Tony LaRussa, who had to turn a blind eye.

Today, I am neither a Giants fan  nor an A’s fan, for the different reasons.  For the Giants, its’ years  of lousy trades, making excuses, and STEROIDS. Now , add the announcers  to the mix. The times I have listened to Giants’  games have been like audio saccharin. Perhaps John Miller’s best days are bhind him, as I can’t understand how he mad e the broadcasters Hall of Fame being such a homer.  Similarly, the new guy, is just as bad. I can just turn on the radio and tell instandly who’s winning –WITHOUT THE SCORE – by the tone of their voices.  There’s a definite down tone to their voices when they’re losing – and , often, it’s  umpire’s fault.  The ball-strike calls usually seem to go against the Giants when they’re losing., according to Miller and  ‘flem.’   And  ,  I get really tired of Miller’s over-use of the word ‘indeed.’ INDEED!  Maybe there was good reason to drop Miller and Morgan from the Game of the Week broadcasts this year.  Miller may be a nice guy – and he does  a great VinScully impression – but it seems like he made have changed his style, becoming more of a ‘homer’ when he joined the Giants broadcasters.   Wouldn’t be surprised if  Baer and company told him to give it a little more ‘home’.  And then there’s  ‘Krook’ , who’s the worst of all. He may know his baseball but it’s Excuse City when it comes to the Giants. Only his buddy, Kuiper, seems to truly give a more unbiased approach to the game of all the broadcasters.  ‘This is John Miller , your (pregnant pause) G-g-g-iants b-b-b-b-roadcaster.!

Whereas the  Golden State Warriors didn’t give Keith Smart a chance, firing him after one year, the A’s are way over due! How long will the misery go on. What a shame to see an above average team wallowing  in mediocrity, due largely to the manager. Oh, and by the way, Billy, swallow your pride and play Sweeney more. So what if you the guys you traded for, DeJesus and LaRoche aren’t as good hitters and you can get Milton Bradley back now – he’s on waivers –  but we know you won’t having given away  Apier to get Bradley the first time.
