| Minor leaguer Mike Jacobs suspended for HGH | 08.18.11 at 2:23 pm ET |
Mike Jacobs, the former Met, Marlin and Royal with 100 career home runs, has been suspended for HGH use by Major League Baseball. Jacobs is the first player suspended for HGH. He received a 50-game suspension and was released by the Rockies.
“A few weeks ago, in an attempt to overcome knee and back problems, I made the terrible decision to take HGH,” Jacobs said in a statement released through his representative. “I immediately stopped a couple of days later after being tested. Taking it was one of the worst decisions I could have ever made, one for which I take full responsibility.”
Jacobs had 23 home runs and 97 RBIs with the Rockies’ Triple-A team.
