As the title says, I was just wondering if Hanley Ramirez has ever been linked to steriods, or if he has ever been the subject of such suspicion. Also, just as your own personal opinion, do you guys think he does/ever did use them, but has just not been caught yet? I know personally there are a few guys in the MLB that I would put money on used before, and have now stopped for fear of getting caught, and their numbers have suffered consequently. Although, Hanley's not really a big power hitter, which would lead me to believe he doesn't use them. Please let me know your opinions, thank you, Ricardo

not hanley but here's a comment canseco recently made on his twitter account!:

"Of the 103 unnamed players on the list who tested positive for steroids in 2003, Manny Ramirez's name is most likely on the list, 90%."

I'm no Jose fan. I think he's a loser, BUT, he hasn't been wrong yet about the dudes using steroids. Most likely, he's right again, and we can add another "great" player-Manram-to the cheater list with Big Mac, Sosa, Afraud, Rafi, etc. Pretty sad.

Oh, and let's not forget Clemens either, which he pegged correctly too.

I was watching a show and the analysts pointed out that up intil now, Jose Canseco has not been disproved on any of the accusations that he's made. Many have actually come to pass. Of course his fall from grace is a joke and no one can really take him seriously, but many of the things he's said have been true. It wouldn't surprise me int eh least if Manny has or did juice. Any thoughts on HANLEY Ramirez though? Ricardo

Haha, bird33 beat me to the punch. I was typing my long-winded reply, and I ended up saying the same thing that he did.

from another discussion about the same..
I was at the “event”. Canseco was a mess, and I would not be surprised at all if he was drunk throughout the entire presentation.
He was asked whether he thought Manny took steroids, and his answer was that he personally didn’t know, but that he was sure because he had a trouble getting a contact, and this must have been because he took steroids and that this was going to come out.
Of course, he didn’t mention the economic factors at all, and he pretty much came up with the number off his head, so it’s not the most credible piece of information ever.
