The "J" in this case isn't Jesus, it's Mark McGwire's born-again baby brother Jay. And according to the website Deadspin.com, what Jay would do is shop a book on how he introduced Big Brother to steroids.
Channeling Stephen Baldwin, the younger McGwire says the tome was written "out of love." He wrote, "I want Mark to live in truth to see the light, to come to repentance so he can live in freedom--which is the only way to live."
Another factor is that McGwire simply doesn't belong due to his one-dimensional game, and there's nothing he could have jabbed in his ass to change that.
I guess there's nothing like the Jesus Juice to get you to sell out your brother for being on the Bash Brother juice, eh, Jay?
The New York Times reports that publishers aren't exactly lining up to line Jay McGwire's pockets in his literary debut, however.
Mark McGwire hit 583 home runs in his career, yet totaled only 1,626 hits with a lifetime .263 batting average. He received 21.9% of votes in the 2008 Baseball Hall of Fame balloting, well below the necessary 75% needed for induction. Many observers claim his alleged steroid use has resulted in McGwire's lack of Hall support, and it has certainly played a role.
