STEROID PT.3 - ABOUT BASEBALL

WELCOME TO MY WORLD

The first indication of steroids in baseball started was with Mark Mcgwire

and Jose Canseco in 1987 and it continued all threw the 90's and it got so

bad that Roger Clemons, Sammy Sosa, Mark Mcgwire, and Ralph Palmero stood

in front of a congressional hearing on steroids and had no comment or in

the case of Ralph Palmero said " I did not take steroids ". Ralph Palmero

got into a lot of hot water for this because soon after he said it he

ended up testing positive for steroids and people like Roger Clemons and

Barry Bonds have been pushed out of baseball by the feds coming after them

for allegedly using of steroids during their careers. For the most part

MLB turned a blind eye to it as in there was not a policy until the late

90's and Mark Mcgwire was not hiding his steroid because he had it in

clear sight in his locker during his home run chase where he hit 70 home

runs as he had Andro in his locker. Mlb is still turning a blind eye to

steroids today as they have very muscler batters smoking the ball 450 -

500 ft and pitchers who throw close to 100 mph if not over like Aroldis

Chapman who throws 105 mph. While other pitchers have pin point spotting

of the ball which sounds like hgh (human growth hormonies) which gives

people more acute vision and there are also really fast runners in

baseball so that some players are using steroids to strenghten their legs

so they can be really really fast. Also hitters who have been great

hitters ie they get a high batting average like 340-350 could also be

using hgh to see the ball better. MLB takes the minor league players and

steroids more seriously because the minor league policy for steroids is a

lot stronger than for major league players and minor league players

actually get suspended for like 50 games.
