Rick Ankiel & HGH

The New York Daily News reported yesterday that Rick Ankiel had received a 12-month supply of HGH (Human Growth Hormone) in '04, but stopped receiving it before the the ban in '05. MLB said that players who have used HGH, or were in possession of it after the ban could face a 50-game suspension. Hopefully no wrongdoing will be found, and Ankiel will be able to continue to help the Cards make a run at the NL Wild Card.
