Tampa Bay Rays Drawing Lots of Drug Testing Attention

Carlos Gomez is in the news again this week. Not for a bat toss or a charging of the mound. This time it is for his reaction to drug testing. Specifically, the number of times he has been tested so far this season. Yesterday, the Tampa Bay Times‘ Marc Topkin quoted Gomez as saying:

“You can come any time; I’m available to do a drug test. But don’t tell people it’s random. That’s the only complaint that I have. I have plenty of pee and plenty of blood. But don’t say that’s random, because it’s not.
