Report: Clemens' lawyer claims he passed steroid test in '03

Baseball Betting Lines

07/04/2009 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Seven-time Cy Young Award winner Roger Clemens was reportedly not among the 100-plus players who tested positive for performance-enhancing substances in 2003, when the league conducted an anonymous drug test throughout the league.

According to a report in the New York Times, Clemens' lead lawyer, Rusty Hardin, said he acquired the results of the test that found the pitcher to have tested negative.

While the test results were supposed to remain anonymous, Hardin claimed that Clemens waived that right and requested the results. Several names have been leaked from the list, such as current Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez, who has since admitted his usage of PEDs.

The assertions that Clemens tested negative in 2003 will have no bearing on his current legal troubles involving former Yankees trainer Brian McNamee. In the Mitchell Report, which was released in 2007 in an attempt to discover how prevalent PEDs were in baseball, McNamee claimed he injected Clemens with several substances from 1998-2001. The trainer did not make any claims about 2003. The supposed negative test result was not entered into evidence as part of the case.

Clemens has come under much scrutiny for his steadfast denial of PEDs following his exit from baseball after the 2007 season. Regardless of whether he used or not, he put up tremendous career statistics, compiling a 354-184 record with a 3.12 earned run average in 24 seasons with Boston, New York, Toronto and Houston. Clemens currently ranks third all-time with 4,672 career strikeouts.

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter Johnson

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.

Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.

MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .

''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''

Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.

He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.

''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''

Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.

Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.

With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
