Segui Admits Taking HGH

According to Buster Olney’s latest column (subscription required), David Segui said he has been taking HGH since 2003 and is one of the names blacked out on Jason Grimsley’s affadavit.

From Olney’s column:

Segui says he has used human growth hormone since 2003. “I was under doctor’s prescription, doctor’s supervision,” he says. “It’s perfectly legal.”

He says he was off for a couple of months, and he could tell a dramatic difference. When asked, however, if it helped him as a baseball player, he says, “not at all.”

“Steroids need to be gone out of the game,” Segui says. “Everybody is talking about a level playing field; you have to get rid of that stuff.”
