Scott Boras is in Hot Water

Scott Boras may be in some hot water after a report came out that the agent attempted to cover up Manny Ramirez’s steroid use. According to the report Boras attempted to get Biogenesis founder Anthony Bosch to fabricate certain records to overturn Manny’s 50 game suspension. This dates back to May of 2009 when the suspension was handed down by Major League Baseball.

Naturally Boras denied all the allegations and denies ever having met Mr. Bosch in his life, and why wouldn’t he? Ramirez, now out of the game, refused to take a phone call or talk about the allegations. The cover up was detailed by saying that with the proper patient charts Ramirez could state that he accidentally used his elderly uncle’s testosterone cream believing it was aftershave. The cream apparently contained hcG, a fertility drug that is banned by MLB.

When caught and suspended Manny was quoted as saying his doctor prescribed the medication that forced the positive test for “personal health issues” with no further explanation. Multiple sources after the fact stated the substance linked to the failed test was hcG so this story, at least on the surface, seems to hold water. Stay tuned, the Bronx may still be burning when it comes to Alex Rodriguez a former Boras client. 

But this is pertaining to Manny, that's probably why this is the first you're reading about it.
