There's so much talent out there with clean players who want the chance to play.
He needs help, I hope that he gets it.

cardinals taking some hits.scot vander weg tested positive? your right these kids need help,and i do hope they get it. it isn't easy to get sometimes.
I dont understand why athletes these days that go out and get in trouble with the law and etc.They are living a dream that i can only hope i can live one day.They are wasting space for kids who are really deserving of getting there for a chance.Like for example i dont DRINK or SMOKE or get in trouble with the law or PARTY on the weekends.I'm trying to go some where with the talent that has been given to me,im going to college to play ball and taking my life in the right direction. Some are just stupid and i hope some people agree with me lol
I coached Scott years ago in some high school allstar games. I doubt he'd remember me. From where he once was, this is hard to believe. I still recall the players all getting there early and some asking me if I had met Scott. When he came in, I gave him the old, you're a pup and I'm going to embarass you tomorrow in BP. NOT TRUE! He crushed the ball. To go from that young man who love and lived the game to now, is hard to believe. I wish him well and hope that he finds his path back to MLB.
Good Decision?
...sadly, yes.
If Josh Hamilton's death wasn't an effective wake-up call, what more is there? For the most part, a real tragedy was averted.
Spiezio's con was so good it even had him fooled

Josh Hamilton died?
Josh Hancock.
I believe that infidel means Josh Hancock the Cardinal player who died last season.
Funny thing is I read an article yesterday where it inferred that Hancocks death had put Spiezio into a deep depression

My bad. 
...sorry.
...sorry.
Just a typo, slugger --- Josh Hancock died.
#30, I agree with your aggravation and sincerely hope that all the players associated with this site remember the joy, love, and priviledge of playing The Game as they progress.
It's astonishing (and very sad) how quickly the 'entitlement' attitude kicks in for some players.

In the book, Inside Pitch, the author notes that it takes about 1 week, once a player gets to the majors.
IMHO Coach Tony doesn't set much of an example for his players!!!
