I saw earlier he was getting 80 games. Can't say I'm shocked that he's finally turning to steroids to try to stay in the league a little longer.

why do you assume that it is finally? He finally got caught!

If he never used before...I can't say I blame him one bit. If I were a MLB player I would do them if I thought I wouldn't get caught.

I'm just guessing he would have gotten caught by now if he used. He's been in the majors for a long time, so I'd assume he's been tested numerous times before. That said, I really don't know.

They all think they wouldn't be caught but so many are..

It would be naive to think everyone who is using are being caught. Or that no one in MLB is using performance enhancing drugs. There is such a thing as masking.

I doubt a player gets caught the first time using.

I speculate that Verlander is using something. JMO.

If he is...I say keep it up!
