Ramirez and Ortiz tested positive in 2003

Yeah it was something like "people might be on the list because they hated PEDS and tested positive on purpose to get more testing." Didn't really make much sense to me. He's probably on the list too though.

 

I think the stats prove he did it...

18 & 20 HR's playing in an indoor little league ball park? The freaking place is called the Homer Dome for Christs sake!!!

Granted Fenway is a hitters park as well but at least there's weather factors

 

If you go off Park Factors, Fenway's been more of a hitters park the years Ortiz played there than the Metrodome was when he was a Twin. The guy hit his peak-level years and started hitting. Steroids don't turn shitty players into superstars. That's just too big of a jump for a drug to be the main reason.

 

Not to mention it's harder to hit HR's in Minny as a lefty vs. Boston as a lefty.

 

Ortiz to hold a press conference Saturday.

I bet he says something along the lines of "Me no speaking engleesh"
