Clapp & Klassen give insight to another side of the steroids story

Posted on January 17, 2008 by Duman in Bus Ride Archive

Stubby Clapp, Lexington Hitting Coach and Astros Minor Leaguer Danny Klassen are interviewed about minor leaguers who feel steroid users kept them from playing in the bigs.  The Canadian article mentions a former minor leaguer who is considering a class action lawsuit against MLB because those not using were at a disadvantage and were harmed from realizing potential earnings.

“It’s easy to feel cheated,” said the 32-year-old Klassen, who lives in Scottsdale, Ariz. “It’s easy to feel sorry for yourself when you’re trying to do things the right way and other guys are going  past you.”.. .”Anyone who wanted them could have gotten them, but I didn’t know what affect it would have down the road,” he six-foot, 190-pound Klassen said.

Quote

“I don’t have millions, but I have my dignity,” he said. “I’m more satisfied with how I got there and can look my wife, my sons, my mom and dad and family in the eye and have a clean conscience.”
