New book claims Alex took steroids in high school
Selena Roberts book "A-Rod" claims that Alex took steroids in high school, according to the NY Daily News. The book suggests that Alex took steroids from as young as 15, whilst fellow Major League players claim Alex, 33, was using steroids during his time with the Yankees. However, although Alex has recently admitted to using PEDs, the Yankees third baseman insists it was only during his time with the Texas Rangers between 2001-03. According to the Daily News, the book is negative throughout, and tries to paint Alex as egocentric. Roberts also alleges that Alex tried to bribe opposing teams by telling them the type of pitches they would get, in the hope that they would help him later. There is no comment from Alex's publicist yet.
