Apart from the Braves, Berroa also played for the Cincinnati Reds, Florida Marlins, Oakland Athletics, Baltimore Orioles, Cleveland Indians, Detroit Tigers, Blue Jays, and Los Angeles Dodgers.
On 20 December 2007, Berroa was accused by former major league pitcher Jason Grimsley of using anabolic steroids in a federal agent's affidavit.[1]
