{allcanada} ERIC GAGNE: 80 PER CENT OF DODGERS USED PEDS

In his new book, former National League Cy Young Award winner Eric Gagne says that performance enhancing drug use was rampant within the clubhouse of the Los Angeles Dodgers when he played there.

"I was intimately aware of the clubhouse in which I lived. I would say that 80 percent of the Dodgers players were consuming them," Gagne wrote in his French-language book entitled "Game Over: The Story of Eric Gagne."

While Gagne doesn't name any of his teammates, he does detail his own use of human growth hormone over five cycles in a three-year period as his career was winding down.

Gagne, who publicly admitted to using HGH in 2010, also revealed the other costs of using PEDs.

"It was sufficient to ruin my health, tarnish my reputation and throw a shadow over the extraordinary performances of my career," Gagne wrote.

Gagne, who converted a Major League record 84 straight saves, won the Cy Young in 2003, when he saved 55 games and posted a 1.20 ERA.
