Manny Ramirez's recent prescription for HCG, human chorionic gonadotropin, cost him approximately 7.5 million dollars--the amount by which his 50-day unpaid suspension reduces his 24 million dollar annual salary. While Ramirez's was purchasing the most expensive drug in history, the Dodger outfielder was also guaranteeing that he will soon be enshrined in the Guinness World Book of Records as the Biggest Dope on the Planet. Even if his prescription plan covers 80 percent of the cost of HCG, that's a pretty big hit for a guy who purports to know how to handle the bat.
