Slightly more surprised than if it was Cruz, but agree its just adderall if that is true. Reminds me of Brady Andersen.

Adderall has the opposite effect to those that don't need it. A lot of guys take it and other drugs as the 162 game season is a grind- Adderall and greenies are popular drugs for ball players along with testosterone boosters.

In the end, it is a performance enhancer. And as a hitter, it helps him focus more.

But it wasn't what made him hit 53 homeruns last season. Most random 50 homerun season since Brady Anderson*? What is it with Orioles and cheating?

*He played between 12 and 13 full seasons (estimate by combining partial seasons) and almost 25% of his HR came during one season.

Apparently he had an exemption last year to use adderrall, but not one this year. Maybe it really helped him concentrate at the plate more? Regardless, not a good look Christopher.

Why in Jeter's name is the orioles Yankees game the Sunday night game??dodgers Giants being the obvious choice with the two teams so close for the west and with Kershaw on the mound.

ESPN doesn't seem to realize there is baseball played outside of New York and Boston

They pick which is going to be the Sunday nighter when making the schedule. Obv they didn't know that LAD/SF would have playoff implications at this point and that NYY/BOS wouldn't... they just pick which game they think will do best and make it the nightcap.

There are apparently 122 players in the league with this kind of exemption, and they need to renew it a couple times a year iirc. Suspensions only happen after the 2nd positive test (without exemptions obv), with the first being a warning. I think Miguel Tejada kept getting suspended for this at least a couple times because he's just absent-minded and kept forgetting to renew his permit.

edit- Davis didn't have an exemption last season.

I just love ESPN Headlines

Stanton "much better" after getting hit in the face.

Well, if it is going to make us better perhaps we should all (except Janay Rice) just line up to get hit in the face..

yeh, it has to be flexed. There is no way they would have had the Royals scheduled to be on Sunday Night Baseball before the season started.
