This article today is probably why he also did/said this:

“I think you clean up the game by the testing,” Ortiz said Monday. "I know that if I test positive by using any kind of substance, I know that I’m going to disrespect my family, the game, the fans and everybody, and I don’t want to be facing that situation.
“So what would I do? I won’t use it, and I’m pretty sure that everybody is on the same page,” he said.
He drew a distinction between the use of steroids through 2003, when it was not penalized, and the period since then when testing with penalties has been in effect.

I'm shocked.

Shocked I tell you.

Who would’ve thought two massive, lumbering lugs would’ve been on steroids?
