Giants' Melky Cabrera denies positive drug test | Overtime

Giants star Melky Cabrera denied Friday that he had tested positive for using a performance enhancing drug.

The report of the positive test and Cabrera’s denial came first from Comcast Bay Area’s Andrew Baggarly. He mentioned that Cabrera was tested last week, but said that neither Cabrera nor the MLB Players Association had any information regarding a positive drug test.

A public apology to Melky Cabrera

SAN FRANCISCO – Medical school graduates take the Hippocratic oath, which can be distilled into three words: Do no harm.

Journalism school grads take no such oath, but our duty is clear: We’re bound to seek the truth, to be as fair and accurate as possible and to serve the interests of readers.

I thought I was doing that Friday when I chose to ask Melky Cabrera about rumors that I had heard from several different readers who had contacted me via email and my Twitter account over the past few days. I had no idea where these rumors started, but the questions were starting to mushroom about whether Cabrera flunked a drug test and would face a 50-game suspension.

Let’s be clear: There is no evidence that there is any shred of truth to these rumors. Cabrera knew nothing about it. He contacted the union and his agent. They told him the rumors were unfounded as well. If Cabrera had failed a test, he and the union would’ve been the first to know. The rumor, to my knowledge, is a red herring. Cabrera even suggested to me that Dodgers fans could have made it up as a distraction.
