 Orioles manager Buck Showalter recently played golf with Chris Davis in Texas, and the first baseman revealed that he's received a therapeutic use exemption for Adderall for the 2015 season.

Major League Baseball suspended Davis for 25 games on Sept. 12 following a second failed test for the drug. Davis apparently had the exception with the Rangers, but was denied with the Orioles.

Roch tweets from Orioles Christmas party:

Buck just told 105.7 The Fan that Chris Davis got approved "for what he got suspended for" #adderall

He did.   But it was two season previous.  He lost that approval and admitted as such:

"I made a mistake taking Adderall.  I had permission in the past, but I don't now." - Chris Davis, Sept 12, 2014.

Or is Buck saying that he has been re-approved?  Because if so, this is becoming a joke.

I think he's saying he now has a current, valid approval.

This would completely change around a lot of people's feelings on where the line is between therapeutic and preforming enhancing drugs.

@ken_rosenthal Sources: #Orioles, #BlueJays have discussed compensation package that O?s would require for allowing GM Dan Duquette to become Jays CEO.

Apparently, the O's would like him to leave.

@ken_rosenthal Duquette under contract with #Orioles through 2018. As I?ve previously reported, some O?s  people want him to go. Uncomfortable situation.

Chris Davis hits .196, gets suspended, and still gets a 16.5% raise.
