Josh Hamilton meets with MLB after drug relapse: source - NY Daily News


Josh Hamilton has been summoned to New York for a meeting with MLB officials. 


I heard the report from MLB Network this morning on Sirius that a league source, when asked if Hamilton's issue was due to PED use, reportedly said "worse, far worse".

Like fellow Angels OF Mike Trout said, "this sucks". But this is what worse, far worse and Hamilton's prior struggles lead you to conclude.

Thought and prayers go out to Josh and his loved ones. This has to be devastating news to them as well as his extended baseball family.

from NY Daily News:
Josh Hamilton meets with MLB after drug relapse: source - NY Daily News:

Josh Hamilton, the slugging outfielder who seemed destined for baseball stardom but has been repeatedly sidelined due to substance abuse, was summoned to New York to meet with MLB officials Wednesday about a disciplinary issue.

A source told The News that Hamilton — whose struggles with crack cocaine and alcohol have been well-documented — suffered a cocaine and alcohol relapse.
According to CBSSports.com, Hamilton told MLB about his relapse. His father-in-law, Michael Chadwick, reportedly said Wednesday that Hamilton has “hit a bump in the road, keep him in your prayers.”
 The Los Angeles Times reported that the Angels are preparing for a possible suspension.
