MLB & MLBPA RELEASE THEIR 2012-2013 DRUG REPORT

THE BIOGENESIS GANG
Jeffrey M.Andreson MD, administrator for the 'MLB Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program' has released his annual report.

The findings as reported:

~ There were 5,391 total drug tests. 4,022 were urine samples, 1,369 were blood samples.

~ There were eight positive tests resulting in discipline. All were for stimulants. Seven of the stimulant tests were for Adderall. One for Methylhexaneamine. 

~  13 non-analytical positives resulted in discipline. (Biogenesis 13).

~ 122 'Therapeutic Use Exemptions' were granted. The diagnoses were as follows: Attention Deficit Disorder: 119; Hypogonadism: 3.

The most interesting fact according to the report, baseball players have ADD at twice the level of the normal population.

Perhaps their being diagnosed that way to get a therapeutic exemption, which is a legal way to get a stimulant.

OK Jhonny Peralta !
