Ron Washington tested positive for...
Rangers manager Ron Washington tested positive for Cocaine last season during July. Yes, Cocaine.
Washington, 57, has been subject to increased drug testing since his failed test, which was administered by Major League Baseball last July, and he has passed all of his subsequent tests. In deciding to support Washington and retain him as manager, the Rangers accepted his apology as heartfelt and also his explanation that this was a one-time transgression.
"I did make a mistake and I regret that I did it," Washington told SI.com by phone from Surprise, Ariz., on Tuesday night. "I am really embarrassed and I am really sorry"

Ron was a product of the mid-70s Royals minor leagues
Which produced a few infamous coke incidents.

Well this knocks down my theory
That Trey Hillman is managing every game while on drugs.

Trey Hillman passes money to Ron Washington in an undercover drug sting,
while Washington laughs about this “cracker” trying to buy drugs off him. Charges were later dropped when it was discovered that Ron kept the good stuff for himself and sold Hillman a bag of salt for $500.

I wonder which one of his players got it for him?
Coffee. The NEW Performance Enhancing drug for Sport's Writers. Just ask Ken Rosenthal.
Let's hope it's not Hamilton
