Two members of the Red Sox security staff reportedly were let go in September 2008 after being implicated in steroid use and becoming the subjects of a Major League Baseball investigation into performance-enhancing drugs.
The Boston Globe reported Sunday that the club dismissed security staffers Nicholas Alex Cyr and Jared Remy, the son of Red Sox broadcaster and former player Jerry Remy, following a July 2008 incident in which Massachusetts State Police found a vial of steroids in Cyr's car.
Cyr was found by authorities sleeping in his car on the side of a road after attending a Josh Beckett charity bowling event, and the police found a vial of the steroid Anadrol, according to the report. Cyr told police Remy had supplied him with the steroids.
Remy has denied being the supplier, but the Globe reported that he acknowledged in interviews that he has been a steroid user.

However, Remy told the newspaper he had discussions about steroids with a former personal assistant of David Ortiz, who along with former teammate Manny Ramirez was reported by the New York Times this past week to be among the 104 players who tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003 anonymous survey testing.
