John Rocker Failed Drug Test

by Hayleigh Hendershot in sports

John Rocker recently announced that he failed a drug test ordered by the Major League Baseball in 2000. He also stated that he and a number of other MLB players were trained about the "safe" use of steroids by management and team doctors.

Rocker said he and other players were told "Look guys, if you take one kind of steroid, you don't triple stack them and take them 10 months out of the year like Lyle Alzado did. If you do it responsibly, it's not going to hurt you."

He did not name the doctors that offered the medical advice.

At this time, there were no regulations on the use of performance enhancing drugs. Officials put rules governing HGH and other steroids in 2002.

Gene Orza, the CEO of the players' association, declined comment.
