If anyone thinks that these guys so called professional arent on some type of drugs, give your head a shake..Look at ortiz now, he's struggling and people are saying that his wrist injury is the problem.. NO !! HELLO !!!! He's off the juice cause he know's the truth will come out soon
Overrated ??? Maybe but all you need is one good year in the bigs then you will cash in.. Look at those players playing there last year of there contract and cash in with a huge contract.. Look at kerry wood, he blows now and mark prior a phenom but where is he without roids ?? Lots of names i can mention but dont have time for it
Physics of Baseball:
Sixty-five percent of the ball’s energy is wasted as it collides with the bat and leaves the bat oscillating in the player’s hands. The stronger the players hands and arms the less oscillation.
Like a ball hitting the cement versus the grass.
Steroids give you a stronger grip: ergo less loss of energy at impact.
Google it...............you need talent but 'roids increase your ability to hit it a long way.
Look at HR hitters of late................nobody is close to 70......cause they aint juiced!
Oral steroids are widely available in the USA because the FDA doesn't crack down on them. They stop some companies but other companies just clone the product. For example there are alot of oral steroids on bodybuilding.com that you can order which are labelled dietary supplements some people call them prohormones but it takes 5 min of research to find out the compound is active by itself which means it is an oral steroid.
The test was in 2003, he hasnt tested positive since then from what we know. He said from now going forward (last year) players should get 1 year ban for using. Don't act like he came out, said that, then tested positive. Thats not the case.
He was cheating and got caught like the other 104 players. I agree with everyones commments in this thread. Ortiz knew he was going to be exposed this year, that has something to do with his down numbers. They really need to publish the other 100 and get this thing over with!
