Alex Rodriguez Statement on Decision of 162 game ban
“The number of games sadly comes as no surprise, as the deck has been stacked
against me from day one. This is one man’s decision, that was not put before
a fair and impartial jury, does not involve me having failed a single drug
test, is at odds with the facts and is inconsistent with the terms of the
Joint Drug Agreement and the Basic Agreement, and relies on testimony and
documents that would never have been allowed in any court in the
United States because they are false and wholly unreliable. This injustice
is MLB’s first step toward abolishing guaranteed contracts in the 2016
bargaining round, instituting lifetime bans for single violations of drug
policy, and further insulating its corrupt investigative program from any
variety defense by accused players, or any variety of objective review.
I have been clear that I did not use performance enhancing substances as
alleged in the notice of discipline, or violate the Basic Agreement or the
Joint Drug Agreement in any manner, and in order to prove it I will take this
fight to federal court. I am confident that when a Federal Judge reviews the
entirety of the record, the hearsay testimony of a criminal whose own records
demonstrate that he dealt drugs to minors, and the lack of credible evidence
put forth by MLB, that the judge will find that the panel blatantly
disregarded the law and facts, and will overturn the suspension. No player
should have to go through what I have been dealing with, and I am exhausting
all options to ensure not only that I get justice, but that players’
contracts and rights are protected through the next round of bargaining,
and that the MLB investigation and arbitration process cannot be used against
others in the future the way it is currently being used to unjustly punish me.
I will continue to work hard to get back on the field and help the Yankees
achieve the ultimate goal of winning another championship. I want to sincerely
thank my family, all of my friends, and of course the fans and many of my
fellow MLB players for the incredible support I received throughout this
entire ordeal."
