A-Rod Tested Positive

SI has learned that Alex Rodriguez was one of over 100 MLB players that tested positive for steroids in what were supposed to be confidential tests in 2003. This will be a terrible blow to his legacy and could taint everything he's done and everything he will do. Fans will recall the MLB tested everyone back in 2003 in what was supposed to be a blind study just so MLB could get some idea of the breadth of the problem. It's hard to know why A-Rod's and only A-Rod's name is being leaked but that's where we are right now. We will probably never know quite how pervasive the epidemic was from 1979-the dawn of testing, but the scattershot witchhunt that's been going on since the Mitchell Report has claimed anothe big name.
