FORT MYERS, Fla. -- A day after being suspended 80 games for the use of a performing-enhancing substance, Twins shortstop Jorge Polanco met with the media on Monday at Hammond Stadium, apologizing for his actions, but not getting into specifics on how he tested positive for Stanozolol.
Polanco said in a statement on Sunday that he took a tainted combination of vitamin B12 and an iron supplement from his trainer in the Dominican Republic, but focused more on apologizing to the organization, his teammates, his family and his fans on Monday.
"I know how everything happened and the details, but today is not the day to discuss those things," Polanco said through a translator.
