Davis sucked this year. I guess the Orioles will miss his power, but thats about it.

Would have been sweeter if Davis was having a great year.

And we're to expect that what he did last season was without the help of PEDs?

edit - It's been revealed that he didn't have a Therapeutic Use Exemption for Adderall, but that he had one last year. So it was either taken away from him or he didn't apply for it again. Feels like there has to be more to this story. He's accepted his punishment rather quickly when most guys usually defend themselves at least a little bit.

Now you know he definitely feels like ****. This poor kid sounds like he's had it rather rough.

Kaden was born with Holt-Oram syndrome, a little-known disorder characterized by skeletal abnormalities of the hands and arms and sometimes heart problems. [His grandmother Princess] Hepner said he may need a heart-and-lung transplant in the future.

Kaden's mother, Rachel Abshire, was killed last year by a friend of his father in a murder-for-hire. It was one of her last wishes for her oldest son to see a professional baseball game. She contacted the Make-A-Wish Foundation before she was murdered.

Adderal is one of the older ADHD drugs which improves focus. But it also causes patients with ADHD to slow down to a degree in order to focus. Not widely used for ADHD treatment now because new drugs are more easily released into one's system. My daughter has ADHD and was prescribed Adderal when she was younger. From my observation I wouldn't categorize it as a significant stimulant, but it is considered a banned substance by MLB.

To put it into the same category as steroids and classify it as a PED is a bit of a stretch.
