Make me wonder. Since he knew he was on the juice, why did he not sign the 27 or so mill he was offered. Would that been money in the bank and a committment or could the Giants have gotton out of the conract on the morals clause.

Don, he felt the need because he was a 260 career hitter. Then 308 with the Royals last year and now 346 before being caught.

I wouldn’t even think of resigning him because he would have signed a huge deal earlier in the year while knowingly taking the illegal substance and in essence sticking it to the Giants.

No character; no deal!

I’m with David. I would like to know why he felt he needed to take any performance enhancing drugs. I think I would try to resign him, but on a short term deal. I also would not spend the bank on him now. I would let him know he needs to stay clean.

I’d like to hear Cabrera’s side. Even if it’s an admission, maybe he could advise other players of the temptations and the dangers.
