Saw an interview with former Braves pitcher John Rocker this morning on one of the local Atlanta news stations. He has a new book out called Scars & Strikes and I guess the interview was mainly to help him promote it.

They talked mainly about the SI article and the reaction to it, but he also admitted to using steroids (said they helped him recover between appearances) and also alleges that 8 to 10 other players in the clubhouse were using at that time. His justification was that if you didn't, it was like bringing a knife to a gun fight.

probably falls under the water is wet level of discovery

And I'd be surprised if only 50% of that clubhouse was using roids

Been my argument about why pitchers were juicing more than hitters...

Rocker was the fricking man. But he needs to just shut up.
