    McCutcheon, a pitcher, got 50 games for taking a performance-enhancing drugs. Not a big-time prospect so no one cares that much.

    Screw this. Once a guy gets caught now, it should be an automatic ban for life. It's been long enough now for guys to get clean. No more excuses.

    13th round pick by us this year. Has some talent, hopefully that wasn't all due to drugs. Damnit.

    It's amazing how many small fries are still getting busted for this. Obviously, IMO, the MLB is protecting big names, and just picking on the small guys but they keep using the drugs anyway.

    Dwight Gooden and Darryl Strawberry took real drugs while playing for the Mets.If times were different they would have never lasted in the big leagues as long as they did.

    Might be an OTC medicine, atleast that's what PinstripesPlus was saying. Hopefully that's the case, he has been pitching great, looks like he could be a real prospect.

    This is about the Yankees prospect, and yisman didn't try to make this a Yankees vs Mets thing. This Yankees/Mets shit is getting tiring on this board, people need to stop trying to turn every thread into that.

    Understood and no Yankee fan here.But when bad things happen to the Yankees all the Mets fans come out of the woodwork.Gooden and Strawberry are the originators of drug usage in New York.

    Keep me posted on all that. If any of them are any good they'll be traded for the next 40 year old pitcher to come along.
