Manny Ramirez Suspended 50 Games For Drug Policy Violation

Manny was suspended for 50 games for testing positive for performance enhancing substances.

Quote Manny:
“Recently I saw a physician for a personal health issue. He gave me a medication, not a steroid, which he thought was OK to give me,” Ramirez said in a statement issued by the players’ union.

Unfortunately, the medication was banned under our drug policy. Under the policy that mistake is now my responsibility. I have been advised not to say anything more for now. I do want to say one other thing; I’ve taken and passed about 15 drug tests over the past five seasons.”
There goes my and I'm sure many of your fantasy leagues. Good luck next year (especially if you started Bronson Arroyo last night).
