San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr., who has been suspended for 80 games after testing positive for the anabolic steroid Clostebol, on Tuesday publicly apologized to his teammates and fans and said that he'd be undergoing shoulder surgery while he's away from the game. «There is no one else to blame but myself.
I made a mistake,» Tatis said. «I'm truly sorry. I have let so many people down. I have lost so much love from people. I have failed.
I'm going to remember what this feels like, and I'm not going to put myself in this position ever again. I know I have a lot of love that I have to recover.
I have a lot of work to do, it will be a very long process. I'm learning, I'm maturing.» Tatis, 23, was in the final stages of his recovery from a wrist injury that he likely sustained during an offseason motorcycle accident.
