Dodgers left fielder Manny Ramirez prepares to head back into the field during a game against the San Diego Padres on Friday. Ramiez will be suspended 50 games for a positive drug test, The Times has learned.

Ramirez's test was of concern because his ratio of testosterone to epitestosterone, another naturally occurring hormone, exceeded 4 to 1, a source familiar with the case told The Chronicle. Under baseball's testing rules, that result is proof of steroid use. (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/05/07/SPUU17GJQ3.DTL)....  Baseball's testers later obtained documents showing that Ramirez had been using HCG, or human chorionic gonadotropin, ESPN reported, citing confidential sources. It is a female fertility drug that male steroid users sometimes take to stimulate their body's natural testosterone production, which usually is retarded by steroid users.

So it's possible he was taking it for long hair growth. Or to grow boobies.

I say reinstate him.

Meet Manny Ramirez, the worlds most lackadaisical steroid user. I have watched Ramirez daily for 10 years and i thought this was a joke when i read it.

  someone probably slipped it in his weed.
