    http://boston.cbslocal.com/2012/09/2...no-ped-rumors/

    found this link where Gammons talked a bit about it today.

    "Also, could New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano be heading towards a suspension for performance enhancing drugs?

    “I heard something about it about three weeks ago and like a lot of things, I never gotten any confirmation. Now people are very careful letting any information out, so I mean these things do circulate. The one that turned out to be true, but again I could never get confirmation and I was told by about six sources for five weeks was Melky Cabrera. I’m not sold on the Cano thing yet, especially because the Scott Boras clients are very careful.”

    I'm gonna sum up all your posts concerning baseball.

    The Giants are great, everybody else sucks.

    That's basically it. Literally

    Going off everything that I've heard on local radio/tv since the rumors started flying around it seems that there is no truth to this story.

    Are shot is super thin now. Losing those games agaisnt the Astros killed us.

    We have to hold on to this game, then go 8-4 whille the Cards go 4-8, with everyone else ahead of us shitting the bed too. And that would just cause a playoff.

    Sigh.

    not really. He was coming off the DUI, and people didnt want to glorify that kind of behavior, so he was snubbed in favor of Verlander.

    Ha, I don't remember anyone saying anything about his DUI when they were talking about his MVP candidacy. But if that was the case, wouldn't the same hold true this year?

    i may have been off a little, but true odds were closer to mine than yours. idc how good davols is with numbers, no way with a 3 game lead were the cardinals 7.7-1 faves, when if both miss its a push.

    ya im sure everyone was gonna come out and say "i would have voted for him, but i didnt like the circumstances surrounding his dui, so im not now". Of course its not going to be made public, theres too much to lose for the voters if they were perceived as 'biased'. The Verlander campaign gained steam and to prevent splitting the vote, Cabrera was kind of swept under the rug. At least that's the impression I got.

    Enough time has passed now that its a distant memory for a lot of people. Just like there may be voters who would vote for Braun but dont this year because the steroid controversy is still too fresh in everyones mind.

    You dont actually believe this do you? You seriously think writers are going to miss a chance to stand on the soapbox over an off-the-field issue? And none of this changes the fact that Cabrera had a better year last year.
