mark-mcgwireAccording to retired FBI agent Greg Stejskal, McGwire’s hiring as hitting coach for the St. Louis Cardinals sent off a bad message.

Stejskal used to be the investigating agent during the major steroids investigation in the early 90s. The investigation showed strong evidence that McGwire used steroids.

However, according to Commissioner Bud Selig, he is delighted that Mark McGwire is returning to Major League Baseball. Selig referred to McGwire as a very fine, fine man. The Cardinals should be applauded, added Selig.

Stejskal worked with fellow retired FBI agent Bill Randall in the early 90s in a steroid investigation called “Operation Equine”. The operation uncovered further steroids use in gyms and among weightlifters, as well as bodybuilders and fitness trainers. Two names from the baseball league surfaced during the investigations, one was Mark McGwire and the other was his fellow Oakland A player Jose Canseco. More than arresting individual steroids users, Operation Equine was created to catch steroids suppliers and distributors. Operation Equine actually snared a net 70 convictions.

After Equine, both Stejskal and Randall received solid evidence that McGwire was on steroids. Stejskal’s reliable source was no other than McGwire’s steroid supplier, Curtis Wenzlaff, a previous California resident.

From NY Daily News:

Bud Selig said Tuesday that he is “delighted” Mark McGwire is returning to Major League Baseball, in contrast to remarks by a retired FBI agent who said McGwire’s hiring as hitting coach for the St. Louis Cardinals sent a bad message.
