他本人聲稱,他有申請豁免藥物Adderall在2013年,但並沒有在今年延續申請。
""I apologize to my teammates, coaches, the Orioles organization and especially the fans. I made a mistake by taking Adderall.
I had permission to use it in the past, but do not have a therapeutic use exemption (TUE) this year.
I accept my punishment and will begin serving my suspension immediately."
他今年的成績只有AVG .196/.300/.404 with 26 homers and 72 RBI。
如果可以申請真的要申請阿
不然被禁賽對選手和球隊都很傷阿
今年金鶯目標應該會想挑戰冠軍
現在少了一名大砲@@ 作者: carlitocool_7 時間: 2014-9-13 04:50 AM
全壘打還是蠻猛的
但是可能歸類在比較年輕的盲炮吧作者: hihila 時間: 2014-9-13 04:50 AM
以他的發言中:
"I apologize to my teammates, coaches, the Orioles organization and especially the fans," Davis said. "I made a mistake by taking Adderall. I had permission to use it in the past, but do not have a therapeutic-use exemption (TUE) this year. I accept my punishment and will begin serving my suspension immediately."
Davis前幾年真是一名強打大砲,今年突然打擊率下滑
還使用安非他命被禁賽,看來下季再努力了作者: cartman 時間: 2014-9-13 09:00 PM 標題: Chris Davis因為違反MLB用藥規則被禁賽25場

Baltimore Orioles slugger Chris Davis has been suspended for 25 games by Major League Baseball after testing positive for amphetamines, the league announced Friday.
The suspension is effective immediately and will run through the playoffs and into next season if necessary. The Orioles, who hold a 10-game lead in the American League East, have 17 games remaining in the regular season.
MLB's joint drug agreement states that a player receives a warning for a first positive test for amphetamines; Davis's suspension is the result of a second positive test.
Davis released a statement saying he has been taking Adderall as he has in the past, but that this season he did not have an exemption from MLB for the drug.
"I apologize to my teammates, coaches, the Orioles organization and especially the fans. I made a mistake by taking Adderall. I had permission to use it in the past, but do not have a therapeutic use exemption (TUE) this year," Davis said. "I accept my punishment and will begin serving my suspension immediately."
Adderall is not considered a performance-enhancing drug akin to steroids by MLB, but Davis was outspoken last season when he had a career year in leading baseball with 53 home runs and 138 RBI. He has struggled this season, hitting .196 with 26 home runs and 72 RBI.
"I was a little frustrated at first just at the thought anybody would even question it," Davis said at the All-Star break in 2013 of questions about the legitimacy of his numbers. "But I understand it comes with the territory.
"I think any time you're being asked about something, you want to be open and honest about it. I've got nothing to hide. I want people to know that. I want people to feel like they can get behind me."
Adderall exemptions have been on the rise in baseball. Last year, MLB granted a record 119 exemption, up from 116 the year before and 103 in 2007.
Last year's 119 exemptions means that 9.9% of players on 40-man rosters received exemptions, almost exactly double the 4.4% of the general adult population that suffers from ADD and related disorders.
以下略
=============================================================
這算是這兩天MLB最引人注目的新聞,金鶯隊主砲之一的Chris Davis,因為被驗出體內有安非他命,遭到大聯盟禁賽25場,而且立刻生效。基本上例行賽已經不可能再上場,連帶季後賽的前八場也不能再上場。雖然今年他打得不好,但起碼還是有一定的嚇阻作用,可以對隊上的其他主砲(如Cruz)起到一點保護作用。突然被禁賽,對金鶯隊而言是一大損失。
