Daniel Naulty expressed remorse for his admitted use of steroid and human growth hormone over sever-
Naulty al years as a player in both the major league and the minor leagues during a telephone interview
with Mitchell Report investigators.[109]
Wally "In an interview for this investigation, Joyner told us that he struggled with the decision whether
Joyner to try steroids, but eventually he decided to use them. After taking the drugs three times, Joyner
decided that he had made a mistake, discarded the rest of the pills, and never tried illegal perfor-

Manny On June 30, 2000, police discovered steroids and two hypodermic needles in the glove box of
Alexander Alexander’s vehicle. Alexander had loaned the vehicle to a clubhouse employee of the Red Sox,
Carlos Cowart, and Cowart and a friend of his were sitting in the parked vehicle when the offi-
cers approached, in the belief that the vehicle might have been stolen. [111]
Ricky In June 2000, a clubhouse attendant with the Florida Marlins discovered syringes and two
Bones kinds of steroids (stanozolol and nandrolone decanoate) in a paper bag inside Bones’s locker.
When questioned by Mitchell, Bones admitted that he had procured the steroids from a doctor
in his native Puerto Rico and then administered them to himself.[112]
Alex In September 2003, a package intended for Cabrera was delivered to the Arizona Diamond-
Cabrera backs’ clubhouse. Clubhouse attendants reported the package to the trainers and told Cabrera
the package was lost. League officials tested the contents of the package and discovered it con-
tained anabolic steroids (Winstrol) and over-the-counter diet pills. Through investigation of
the package, Major League Baseball discovered that "players with the El Paso Diablos, a minor
league affiliate of the Diamondbacks, regularly crossed the border into Mexico to purchase
steroids." Cabrera was unable to be tested regarding the package, [113] but denied ever having
used steroids after the report was released.[114]
Paxton Crawford admitted to using human growth hormone and steroids while playing for the Boston
Crawford Red Sox in 2001 and 2002. In an article in ESPN The Magazine, Crawford recounted an incident
where syringes had fallen on the floor of the locker room, causing other players to laugh.
Crawford declined to be interviewed for the Mitchell investigation stating he did not "do that
stuff anymore." Other Red Sox players deny the syringe-dropping incident ever happened. [115]

Mike Judd Around May 1999, Todd Seyler, a minor league strength and conditioning coach began to
speak to players including Judd about performance enhancing drugs. Seyler stated that the
players were to give money to Matt Herges or Paul Lo Duca, so they could purchase steroids.
Seyler recalled that he had observed Judd inject himself with either Deca-Durabolin or Win-
strol in July 1999. Seyler believed Judd continued to use the steroid for the next six weeks,
based on conversations with him. Judd did not respond to a request to interview with
Mitchell.[117]
