This leads me to believe that they are just the tip of the ice berg. You have to be naïve to think that they are the only ones taking HGH last year. The other thing is that some of the players were not very good even though they were taking HGH last year. What this shows is MLB testing has failed.dougnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-73225694681203068552013-08-10T10:25:15.000-04:002013-08-10T10:25:15.000-04:00They don't even test for HGH in football or ba...They don't even test for HGH in football or basketball so what's the big deal, this is ruining the popularity of Baseball.dougnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-58323198188807371402013-08-09T07:22:23.000-04:002013-08-09T07:22:23.000-04:00It will be interesting to hear what they took.

But you are absolutely right Doug....drug testing isn't always effective especially when you have millionaire players who can spare no expense to beat them. Lance Armstrong never once failed a test either. And if I am correct, MLB still doesn't test for HGH which most people switched to after testing started.<br><br>Testing isn't a total failure though. They did catch Melky, Colon and Grandal which is why they weren't suspended again after being caught in the Biogenesis investigation.<br><br>As far as others still using, without a doubt. Biogenesis was just the place that got caught....there are many others who get their stuff from other sources Im sure. I do have to believe that the numbers are way down from the 90s and early 2000s so the testing and penalties are working to a degree. Just look at the trend of declining offense around the league.fishjam25http://fishjam25.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-71590359828015754612013-08-10T05:35:14.000-04:002013-08-10T05:35:14.000-04:00Pookie by that time they will have another way aro...Pookie by that time they will have another way around the system. MLB went the wrong way on this one. They should have gone the route of Basketball and Football, it is a non topic there.

Interesting that Colon is having a great year this year after being suspended and yet Bird was terrible while being busted for PEDs, many of these players that were busted just aren't good on PEDs.dougnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-45210448628843727582013-08-10T16:07:37.000-04:002013-08-10T16:07:37.000-04:00Yep you guys are right but they have not even talk...Yep you guys are right but they have not even talked about it.
