    Remember Bobby Estalella?

    He mashed for us in spring training last season. Well, come to find out there is a reason why. Just heard on Jim Rome radio that Estalella was using steroids issued from Greg Anderson (Bonds' guy).

    Well, we were all mad when he was cut, but I can be happy about it now.

    hmm, that's interesting. Last year he certianly put up big spring numbers, but it was pretty clear that there were other things going into the decision to let him go. i know "bad attitude" was cited, but maybe it was juicing too.

    Yeah he admitted to usage along with the Giambi bro's during all the BALCO stuff IIRC (to gain immunity if they testified). I thought that everyone knew that when we signed him.

    No, I had no clue. It caught me at a surprise today man. Or else I just forgot. I was really up on him too.
