February 11, 200521 yr I'll wait and see on this one. I think the evidence is piled a little higher on Roger than Nomar at the moment.
February 11, 200521 yr Boston Dirt Dogs? They wouldn't have an agenda in this ... no way. Just like with Pedro's labrum.
February 11, 200521 yr Author Actually, they dont put stuff out saying its from a source that is a lie. They wouldnt do that. As for the 90% tear that was an ESPN ARTICLE FROM JAYSON STARK YOU MOOKTARD. (Ive held that in for as long as I could)

(Ive held that in for as long as I could) 682440[/snapback] You're right, their source could never be wrong... 682450[/snapback] They posted a link from ESPN.com....they are a blog like site...they can comment on it how they like, spin it how they like, but 90 - the percent sign- and the link between those to Pedro Martinez were from an ESPN article. If you are going to get you feathers ruffled over a few headlines on that site...you need to steer clear from it because your head might explode. Have a sense of humor once in a while.
February 11, 200521 yr From the mouthes of babes Because he is basically the joke of ex-MLB players. He needs money badly so what is going to get him green? Making huge accusations against some big name ball players and the president. If he didnt mention any of this...would anyone by that book? no. A biased, spiteful site reporting from un-named sources about a book written by a former convicted felon who our "Mystery" Poster calls a "Joke of ex-MLB players".
February 11, 200521 yr Nomar Garciaparra will be outed as a steroids user in Jose Canseco's book, a source told Boston Dirt Dogs. Claims made my Canseco should hardly be taken as fact, but they are being treated as news. Here's one more name to add to the list. Feb. 10 - 9:04 pm et From Rotoworld

Im just posting that Nomar will be the player mentioned in the book per BDD. (Read more into it if you want..but thats all there is to it...and if you werent such a stubborn SOB and if you poked your head in here more than to jerk to pedro, carlos, and flushing, ny youd know that deep down, Nomar is one of my 5 fav players) BDD reported the Wade Miller signing and the signings of two japanese players before anyone else. They have their sources.

Feb. 10 - 9:04 pm et From Rotoworld 682475[/snapback] Rotoworld seems to take the spiteful biased little joke of a site seriously. :plain
February 11, 200521 yr Author :plain 682485[/snapback] Canseco: I never thought Id be asking a grown man if i could stick him in the butt with a needle! Nomar: Haha! Me either! Im game.... Canseco: :plain
February 11, 200521 yr The Dirt Dogs site though says this, "Garciaparra Named Briefly in The Book, but Jose Says Nomar is Not on His Steroid List". So what we he named for? Being his friend? I haven't heard Achilles' injuries being roid related anyway.
February 11, 200521 yr makes sense alot actually....need only to look at the previous canseco thread to see the reasons
February 12, 200521 yr ooooops. An update to an earlier post, Nomar Garciaparra was mentioned in Jose Canseco's new book, but not ''outed'' as a steroids user. Previous reports had him on Jose's steriod list rotoworld.com per bdd
February 12, 200521 yr Do you mean their source was wrong? Who'd a thunk it? 683116[/snapback] Im shocked! *shocked*
February 12, 200521 yr Boston Dirt Dogs reported Pedro had accepted a contract from the Sox a week or two before he signed with the Mets. They also reported that Randy Johnson was a Yankee months before the deal went through...
February 12, 200521 yr Canseco also implicates Sosa, Clemens, Tejada By Jorge Arangure Jr. Updated: 2:31 a.m. ET Feb. 12, 2005 BALTIMORE - Jose Canseco's forthcoming book, "Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant 'Roids, Smash Hits & How Baseball Got Big," implicates Baltimore Orioles Miguel Tejada, Sammy Sosa and Tony Saunders as steroid users, although Canseco admits he has no evidence of use by any of them. The allegations appeared Friday in a story on the New York Daily News Web site. Earlier this week, the Daily News reported Canseco claimed that the Orioles' Rafael Palmeiro also used steroids, a charge the first baseman emphatically denied in a statement. According to the Daily News, Canseco, in his book, says he noticed a change in Sosa's physique prior to the 1998 season. Canseco implies the change was because of steroids. "It seemed so obvious," Canseco reportedly wrote, "it was a joke." However, he admits: "I don't know Sammy Sosa personally, so I can't say for a fact that he ever took steroids." Reportedly, Canseco said he introduced Tejada to steroids when the two were in the Oakland Athletics' organization in 1997. Tejada played mostly in Class AA that season, but was called up to the major league club that September. "I started giving him advice about steroids, and he seemed interested in what I was saying," the Daily News quotes the book. But again, Canseco said he never witnessed Tejada use steroids. Neither Adam Katz, agent for Sosa, nor Fernando Cuza, agent for Tejada, was available to comment. The Orioles declined to comment. Perhaps the most puzzling accusation was of Saunders, whom the Orioles signed to a minor league deal this offseason. Saunders, a teammate of Canseco with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays during the 1999 season, has been out of baseball since breaking his arm while pitching in a minor league game in 2000. He did not return a phone call. Baltimore owner Peter Angelos reacted angrily earlier this week to Canseco's claim about Palmeiro. In a statement Angelos questioned Canseco's reputation and said he'd support Palmeiro if he pursued the matter legally. Friday, Bill Stetka, the Orioles' director of publication relations, issued a second statement: "Mr. Angelos's statement earlier this week speaks volumes about Canseco's credibility, or lack of it. We'll reserve further comment until we see if Canseco names Babe Ruth, Abner Doubleday or anyone else." Canseco did not limit his accusations to Orioles. The Daily News reports Canseco named future Hall of Fame pitcher Roger Clemens, though he couches any comments about the pitcher by saying, "I've never seen Roger Clemens do steroids, and he never told me that he did." Canseco said he heard rumors of steroid use by Clemens and that the pitcher's improvement late in his career is a "classic sign" of steroid use. "Neither Roger nor I have seen the book, but any such suggestion is absurd on its face," Randy Hendricks, agent for Clemens, told the Daily News. "It's a wonder Canseco didn't name the Pope, given he named President Bush." link
