http://www.suntimes.com/sports/1640285,CST-SPT-soto26.article DETROIT -- Cubs catcher Geovany Soto has known since April he tested positive for marijuana during the World Baseball Classic in March, and the knowledge that this would become public had caused many sleepless nights for the reigning National League rookie of the year who got off to a horrible start this season. ''He would never make excuses, that's the kind of guy he is,'' Cubs assistant general manager Randy Bush said, ''but I think it has been bothering him.'' Soto was waiting for the International Baseball Federation to make the announcement weeks ago, but after a series of delays, he asked the Cubs if he could release the information himself Thursday. Though Soto, who played for Puerto Rico in the WBC, will be banned from international competition for two years, he won't receive any punishment from Major League Baseball or the Cubs. ''I just feel embarrassed,'' Soto said after the Cubs' 6-5 loss to the Detroit Tigers. ''I'm man enough to do stuff, I'm man enough to face it. I just want to apologize to the Cubs organization, my family and the fans most of all. I just want to put this behind me, and I don't want this to be a distraction for me or my teammates. I would appreciate it if this is the last time we talk about it. It's embarrassing, and I'm trying to put it behind me and move forward.'' ............. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 123.240.130.61
