Dan Shaughnessy Takes On Big Papi

I guess Shaughnessy likes to stir the pot by quizzing David Ortiz about steroid use due to the big guy's excellent hitting since his return from the DL. Big Papi says he's been tested several times for PED's & he has passed them all. Shaughnessy doesn't believe that mere hard work in your late 30's can account for better years since 2010. Ortiz said his hand injury kept him from swinging properly back then & now it's good. And he's been banging the ball around pretty well since 2011 at his advanced age. Question asked. Question answered. If you perform poorly, you are too old to play. If you perform well, you must be cheating. It's that kind of a mindset in today's sports world.
