My Opinion on Ryan Braun being linked to the Bosch Clinic Records

Ryan Braun's name was just mentioned this week in the Miami clinic that Anthony Bosch operates.  Braun issued this statement:

"During the course of preparing for my successful appeal last year, my attorneys, who were previously familiar with Tony Bosch, used him as a consultant," said Braun. "More specifically, he answered questions about T/E ratio and possibilities of tampering with samples.
"There was a dispute over compensation for Bosch's work, which is why my lawyer and I are listed under 'moneys owed' and not on any other list. I have nothing to hide and have never had any other relationship with Bosch. I will fully cooperate with any inquiry into this matter."

My opinion about Ryan Braun's statement is it could be entirely true. You look at the names that were issued last week have steroids by their names in the report. The thing with Braun is doesn't say if he got any steroids from Bosch. I believe that Braun is telling the truth because it wouldn't make sense to have your attorney that mentions the acquiring of steroids. It doesn't make any sense. In this statement Braun says him and his attorney were previously familiar with him and they used as a consultant and that he answered questions about the ration and the possiblities of the tampering of samples. If you can remember from last year, Ryan Braun did mention in his press conference last year they learned things about the collector (who we now know as Kenosha Native Dino Laurenzi Jr.), they did mention about the possible tampering of a sample. He battled this whole thing last year, and he spoke so well in his press conference that it made most people believers. It makes sense that Braun and his attorneys could have hired someone to help them with that situation. That makes the most sense on why Braun is linked to Bosch's Biogenesis clinic records. The thing that jumps out about it was that all the players that have been linked to these records mostly have some sort of connection to the University of Miami, most of them having played college ball there. The thing about Braun's numbers in his career you look at it year by year.: 34 home runs in '07, 38 home runs in '08, 32 home runs in '09, 25 home runs in 2010, 32 home runs in 2011, and 41 home runs in 2012. His numbers have stayed fairly consistent in his 6 seasons in the Big Leagues. There is no spike in his numbers really, it's not like he's hitting 50-60 home runs in a season. This leads me to believe that Braun has never taken steroids and that this completely has to do with the case from last year where Braun had his case overturned by Major League Baseball.
