Bryce Harper, Steven Strasburg, & Steroids

Yes, I'm going there.

Don't know if you have heard of Bryce Harper yet. If not, you will. He's a 16 yr old baseball player who's dropped out of high school, plans to get his GED, so that by next year he'll be eligible for the MLB draft.

They say he is hitting 500 ft HR's. One at 570 feet. He has the record for longest HR in Tropicana field at over 500 ft. Not Carlos Pena, not Fred McGriff, not Greg Vaughn, not Evan Longoria, not Jose Canseco. A 16 yr old kid has the record for the longest HR hit in Tropicana Field. Oh, and by the way...he also throws 96 miles per hour.

Let me be the first to say it. STEROIDS.

Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Juan Gonzalez, Alex Rodriguez couldn't hit balls that far...with Steroids. So how is a 16 yr old kid able to?

And while I'm at it...

Stephen Strasburg is on the the juice too. This guy who was a nobody coming out of high school and was about to get cut from his college team...but he quickly loses 30 lbs and adds 10 miles to his fastball and becomes the greatest pitching prospect, maybe ever.

And while I'm on a roll...here's more guys I believe are juiced up...

Albert Pujols
Carlos Pena
Adrian Gonzalez
Magglio Ordonez
Raul Ibanez

Wow, they're all Latin ballplayers. Coincidence? No. You can buy steroids in the Dominican Republic from the drug store like Tylenol. Same in Mexico. I'd assume it's probably easy to get the stuff in Venezuela as well.

MLB says players are subject to random testing even in the off-season. But let's face it. They aren't going to the DR or Venezuela trying to find guys in the winter. Those guys just juice all winter and attempt to cycle off before they report for spring training.

I don't really care that players are juicing. If you can get away with it, go for it. But I get sick of the media saying that this guy is clean because he's never failed a drug test when we really don't know for sure who's clean and who's not.

Because of that I'm letting my eyes make the decision for me.

If a guy turns 36 and enters the "prime" of his career...he's juicing.

If a guy comes into MLB and he's built like a middle linebacker and hits like a combination of Stan Musial & Ted Williams...he's juicing

If a guy is 16 and already hits balls farther than Mickey Mantle ever did...he's juicing.

If I'm wrong may God forgive me.

i think it is very reasonable to bring up the steroid question when it comes to bryce harper. however, in the interest of full disclosure, Harper hit the longest home run at the Trop with an aluminum bat.

also "if a guy hits 36 and enters the prime of his career, he's juicing"

see randy johnson. no one suspects randy cause of his scrawny frame, but he had FAR AND AWAY the best years of his career post 36. He put up the most dominant K numbers in baseball history in his late 30's. If a someone accomplished as a batter did what Randy accomplished as a pitcher, he would be accused of steroid use.

also, you make a blanket statement about latin players. have you ever considered mo rivera as a potential juicer? he went from looking like this:

to his current physique, and, as a 26 year old, had a mysterious jump in fastball velocity as a minor leaguer:

http://nymag.com/nymetro/news/sports/features/9375/index1.html

see page two paragraph two. rivera credits god for the mysterious jump in velocity.

if youd like to talk more about steroids in baseball email me at martgom21@yahoo.com.

dude i think i agree with the second guy, mostly because it's also easy to get steroids here, too. so don't go metioning that on the internet! although i do think that strasburg, pujols, and maybe even bryce have done steroids in the past. and if they're still doing it, then i need them to stop ruining my favorite sport. i wait all year for the season to start up again, and with every month, there are more people on that list of *.

how can bryce possibly used steroids, sure he hit a baseballs over 500 ft but he uses aluminum bats. if arod, canseco, pujols used aluminum bats they would hit the ball outta the stadium about 5 or 6 times. now stephen strasburg now this is the question, why do you think he used roids? first of all steroids is suppose to make you stronger and gain 20 or 30 pounds. it doesnt help you loose weight. strasburg is tall and skinny. and pujols pena all the other guys you think used roids, have they ever failed a drug test? NO!!!!!!!!!!!! so 90% of this page is false accept the latin players using roids and magglio ordonez on roids.

your just a dumbass yankee fan just jealous of strasburg n harper cause they getting ass and cashflow

I am going to leave a comment, but I must put some sleep on it. I do not have problem leaving my name. If I'm man enough to say it, I am man enough to deal with the consequences good or bad.


Preview: Strasburg has not juiced. Played for a coach, Tony Gwynn, that does testing and on top of that I think NCCA baseball gives randoms. The minor baseball has the toughest drug screen process. (i.e see Andrew Lambo) I will thoughts together and post sometime tomorrow. I have already started braining storming some ideas. I can see Harper using PEDs atop time and I don't see it with Strasburg, but what do I know... I didn't even stay in the Morgan motel last night. (Morgan Motel Inside joke)

You will see an appropriate response tomorrow.

It has been rumored that Bryce Harper has been on steroids for quite some time. The Nationals had better test him for steroids in its pre-signing physical exam.

I am sooo glad that someone finally came out and said it!!! None of the upcoming super stars today are clean! Baseball is starting to become a joke! What happened to getting better with hard work? Everyone wants to take the easy way and cheat! It will eventually ruin the game. It's exciting to see people hit bombs and throw 100mph plus but it will get out of control and the game will be ruined.
P.S. When will someone question Lebron? I know this is a baseball blog but Lebron is a sure fire Juicer!

I know a kid who used to play with Bryce in las Vegas and he says that the kids been juicing since age 12. It's not hard to see that, his father knew his son was talented and just started him young before any testing. I can't wait until it comes out publicly and all of the hype behind him is burned to the ground.

Bryce Harper is not juiced up at all, he just didnt use a wooden bat so thats why the ball went so far this kid is all natural talent

buy steroid said...

You must get enough sleep for your steroid cycles to be effective. If you’re not getting at least 8 hours of sleep per night, your muscles aren’t recovering,

Anonymous said...

I disagree with your accusations that Harper and Strasburg use/used steroids. Harper has the build and mechanics to produce those results. Most of the crazy bombs he hit were off of composite bats, which were most likely doctored up, but cannot be compared to those off of wooden ones. And as far as Strasburg goes, I believe that he simply was give the correct coaching to develop his skills. I was on his HS team and no disrespect from our coaching staff there, but they were not the cream of the crop. He was a little "thick" in HS but still threw hard, and Im sure that Tony Gwynn and staff at SDSU made an effort to implement a diet and workout routine, as well as, adjusted his mechanics to achieve the results he got.

I was thinking that the whole time. How many home runs does he have in the MLB as much as a great rookie thts not jucied
