While there might be an occasional pitcher who used, the vast majority are not suspected. In baseball it was the overwhelmingly power hitters who used.

In cycling, it is everyone. Surely you can admit that distinction.
So because cycling demands strict testing and catches people it is dirty. And since baseball test is a joke and doesn't test then they are irish spring clean. You only say power hitters because those are the guys that left one season looking like Rasmussen and returned to spring training in the shape of the incredible hulk. This seems to be the test that baseball applies and everyone else is clean.


What a crock!
