Q: A lot of people will see your book on the stands and assume, “Well, here’s Radomski telling us that he made a big mistake and he wishes he didn’t stain the integrity of the game.” But that’s not what you’re saying at all.
A: No. I would have helped friends no matter what it was, even if I helped them working out or something. These guys were going to do the drugs with or without me. I helped and made it safe for these guys, and educated them. If it wasn’t for me, who knows what would have happened?
Q: Has baseball solved its drug problem?
A: They want us to believe that, but they haven’t. The only way you solve a problem is saying there’s a problem. They still have never come out and said they had a problem in baseball, so how do you fix a problem if you still haven’t admitted there is one?
Q: You wrote a book to get your side of the story out. What’s your message?
A: The message is that this wasn’t what the press portrayed it as: that it was a few guys and that no one knew what was going on, and that it was a secret. Everyone knew what was going on; I was just the guy caught in the middle. I would never have written the book if it wasn’t for Sen. Mitchell releasing those names, and people would never know. They would know I sold steroids but they would have never known the depth that I was involved in it, they would have had no idea. I went ahead and explained myself because once the Mitchell report came out my name was everywhere, it became so big.
Q: Are you supplying steroids or HGH to any baseball players these days?
A: Nah! I get tested, I’m on probation. I don’t even want to know what it is. I don’t want to see them, I don’t want to know nothing about it.
