50 Game PED Suspension coming out
i have to think about this a little,,,,but i'm not really sure i care if a player is serving his suspension while on the DL.
it's just money to him and it doesn't affect any of us in the fantasy or real baseball world.

The ball flys off his bat, he seems to understand the strike zone and he runs surprisingly well for a huge guy. I want to see the catcher who dares trying to block him at home plate.

It sort of incentivizes players to take enhancements to speed healing. i'm trying to be objective,,,but is this bad? if a player takes drugs to get healthy quicker. but once he's healthy, he's clean. in a world of players trying to beat the system, and avoid issues,,is this bad?
what if a player admits to PED's to get healthy, then has to pass the league drug test to play.
after all, they are making big bucks and putting fans in the seats.
in the volquez instance, we don't know when the test was done,,or do we?

He said the number one question asked of him outside of baseball questions are if he played College football, where, and what position.
He never played.
Said he loved baseball too much.
Love that guy!
