The Dirt: FOX Sports is reporting that the Arizona Diamondbacks have released pitcher Jason Grimsley at his request after federal agents searched his home in an apparent steroid-related raid. Agents would not confirm what was found, if anything.
The Spin: Interestingly, the agent named in the article is an IRS agent. Grimsley had met with teammates about his decision to leave the team, saying that he didn’t want the investigation to bring them down. The article states that Grimsley was tested positive for HGH in 2003 after admitting use. Reports say that the agents could have been looking for connections to other players.
