Alex Rodriguez is now claiming part of why he stopped taking steroids after 2003 was a serious neck injury he said he had that year (about halfway down the story), which he also, conveniently, didn’t tell the Texas Rangers about.
BUT, per Baseball-Reference.com, A-Roid missed just one game that year, and won his first MVP.
Update, per comment: In a comment, Joe says A-Roid did have a neck injury in 2003. Says the stRangers shut him down for more than a week.
But, as he notes, this was spring training.
First, did he lie about how this scared him off using steroids that year, since he tested positive in 2003?
Second, did he lie about claiming NOT tell the stRangers about it?
Answers?
Yes and yes.
Joe didn't leave any more comment in the post, so I don't know if he was just shedding factual light or he's an A-Roid shill.
Oh, beyond that, speaking as a long-time Cards fan, Joe? When I hear serious neck injury, I think Chris Duncan, or Larry Walker before that.
If this is the neck injury A-Roid meant, did he lie about it being serious?
You know my answer.
Running again our latest poll, A-Roid vs. “Buy That Man an Orchidometer” Barry Bonds:
