BOSTON (AP) -- A Boston newspaper is reporting the Red Sox fired two security staffers last summer after an investigation into steroid use.

Jared Remy, the son of Red Sox television commentator Jerry Remy, and Nicholas Alex Cyr both told the Boston Globe they used steroids, but denied any knowledge of drug use by players.

The Red Sox issued a statement saying they worked with Major League Baseball in investigating the staffers, but said that investigation is confidential. Major League Baseball said its investigation was "thorough and detailed."

The Globe says state police confiscated a vial of steroids from Cyr's car just before last year's All-Star break and Cyr told police he had bought the drug from Remy.

Sounds like Boston had quite a bit of "juice" flowing in the first decade of the 21st century.

...to make a non-story a story.

:shrug:

There's a big question of where they are getting this stuff and how much access the players have to it.

Just remember that it was a MA state trooper that did the supplying.

These are just lowly securtiy guards and I agree there is more dot connecting that needs to be done. One has to wonder though how much the Red Sox orginaztion knew.

Also, Arroyo just came out and stated he's on that 2003 list.
