I read awhile that he was no longer a vegetarian but he'll only eat certain meats.

UPDATE: JEFFRESS' AGENT, JOSH KUSNICK, CONFIRMS JEFFRESS' SUSPENSION: Reached by telephone, Jeffress' agent, Josh Kusnick (Agent39 here on BF.net) , reluctantly confirmed the positive test. "I'm sure it's aleady getting around the ballpark in Brevard County," said Kusnick. "All I'll say is it was not a performance-enhancing drug. We all know the issue Jeremy has had in the past. "He obviously has a very sensitive issue he has to overcome. This is all about Jeremy now. This is a problem that goes beyond his career. It's more important to get the person fixed. "Jeremy is destroyed by this. He knows what he did is wrong and is incredibly remorseful. We're hoping people support him during this difficult time." Kusnick said plans are being put together to get Jeffress into a treatment program for his abuse problem.

Right-hander Jeremy Jeffress, rated by many as the top pitching prospect in the Brewers' farm system, has drawn a 100-game suspension for testing positive for a second time for a "substance of abuse." The penalty leaves Jeffress, 21, one positive test away from a lifetime ban under the Minor League Drug Treatment and Prevention program. rest of article @ http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/49267777.html

I smiled the day the Cubs signed Bradley. January 8th, a day that will live in infamy (for Cubs fans!)

Cubs catcher Geovany Soto tested positive for marijuana while playing for Puerto Rico during the World Baseball Classic last March, the International Baseball Federation announced Thursday. Soto released a statement saying he was "embarrassed by my lapse in judgment." "While I full acknowledge my inappropriate behavior, I want to assure my fans and my family that this was an isolated incident," he said. Soto will be banned from international play for two years, but the positive drug test does not have any impact on his major league availability. The Cubs released an unsigned statement indicating Soto has been drug tested regularly and this was the only positive test. "Geovany assured the organization this was an isolated incident and a misstep in judgment that will not be repeated," the statement said. "Though surprised and disappointed, the club supports Geovany as he takes responsibility for his actions and accepts the consequences." Soto is expected to address the media after the game. http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports_hardball/2009/06/geovany-soto-failed-drug-test-during-world-baseball-classic.html
