Hobbes 1 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 when these names come out, it will rock the baseball worldhttp://www.azcentral.com/pdfs/060706grimsley.pdf Don't we already know that there are a lot of players who use performance enhancing drugs? This will only be a big deal depending on who gets named. Nobody cared about the steroid suspensions until Palmeiro was caught. Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody cared about the steroid suspensions until Palmeiro was caught.He's mentions ALOT of names, he's played for 8 different teams, he also mentions a "boatload" of players had the same supplier as he had. This is HUGE. It's all there. Link to post Share on other sites

nutzbuster 7 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Grimsley is singing like a damn Canary!Heads and careers will roll over dead after the smoke clears on this oneThis is H U GE Link to post Share on other sites
Solodell 0 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 maybe now the pressure will be on to also test for HGH and we can ACTUALLY get past all this, unlike what they've done so far and everyone just said, "yeah, they're testing, but not for HGH, so we still don't know who's clean."or it could bring a lot of guys down.

aadams_22 3 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 This is absolutely huge. I have been listening to this story all day on XM's baseball station. FBI agents searched his house for 6 hours before Grimsley made it known. Of course this begs the question...What exactly did they have on Grimsley in order for the feds to search his house for 6 hours in order to gather information? I know he has been outspoken against MLB drug testing and has backed a few players who were accused of taking illegal substances in the past, but neither is proof enough for the feds to issue a search warrant.He was caught with two kits of HGH. This isn't just a suspension we're talking about here. Grimsley could be facing federal charges that could ultimately culminate in him being sent off to a federal prison and I don't think people realize that. The fact that he threw many people under the bus makes it an almost certainty that it's a part of a plea agreement.Needless to say the man's career is over. However, the man is 39 years old and is in his 15th big league season so he was an the end of his career anyway. I hate that it had to come to this for baseball to start testing for substances other than steroids, but this is a clear cut example of tragedy/soution...just like it takes someone getting killed to get a stop light put at an intersection type of thing.

pockets 0 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 What they had on Grimsley wasn't that he possessed two HGH kits-it's that they knew there were two HGH kits shipped to him, which is why they were able to get the search warrants so easily.And wsox, there's a lot of text and it's in pdf form, so it's not overly copyable.
