Jose Bautista is being talked these days as a likely candidate to have used a little extra pick-me-up.
The Toronto Blue Jays slugger recently said the tests under the name of random drug testing policy that is conducted by the Major League Baseball are not really random.
Bautista while speaking at a recent banquet event in the Dominican Republic told the attendees that there is absolutely no reason for anyone to be doubtful of his Hulk-like outbreak as he has been “randomly†tested sixteen times in the last two years for performance enhancing drugs.
The 2-time MLB Home Run Champion and newest member of the 50 HR Club set a Toronto Blue Jays single-season franchise record in the 2010 season when he hit a major league leading 54 home runs and became the first player to earn two consecutive home run titles after Mark McGwire of the National League.

If recent reports are to be believed, the Baseball Hall of Fame will very soon feature some of the greatest home run hitters in the history of the game who were using or accused of using steroids.
The admission of these players seemed inevitable from the start as ignoring the most dominant pitchers like Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens would have left the Hall of Fame almost empty and meaningless.
Bonds and Clemens were two players who brought baseball back into the national forefront in 1990s that was far more impressive than their career home run totals.

Other baseball stars tainted by the doping scandal include sluggers like Jason Giambi and Mark McGwire and pitcher Roger Clemens.

Federal prosecutors still care deeply about steroids, and lying about their use to Congress as the aborted Roger Clemens trial shows.
The shredded reputation of Clemens remains in limbo after last week’s mistrial in the perjury case against one of baseball’s all-time greats.
“I think there’s certainly some performance-enhancing drug fatigue,†said Charles Yesalis, a professor at Penn State and longtime outspoken critic of PED abuse.

Jose Canseco, the former baseball slugger, has expressed regret over his involvement in the sport’s ongoing steroids controversy in a one-hour documentary titled, “Jose Canseco: The Last Shot.”
Canseco regretted “mentioning players (as steroids users)” in his book “Juiced” that was published in 2005 and ultimately led to a congressional hearing on doping in the sport.
“I never realized this was going to blow up and hurt so many people,” Canseco said in the interview.

The mistrial in the Roger Clemens perjury trial has delivered the perfect ending to the steroid era.
The trial suggested that no one was definitively guilty and no one is undeniably innocent.
The final unsatisfying chapter of the steroid era is all closed now.

The efforts of Mark McGwire for reducing the extent of his decade-long doping program seem to be as inauthentic as his home run records.
The records of McGwire are under scrutiny ever since a California steroid dealer handed Mark McGwire a sophisticated array of super-potent anabolic steroid almost twenty years ago.
Insisting on anonymity, the informant of FBI revealed McGwire’s regimen was one-half cc of testosterone cypionate every three days; one cc of testosterone enanthate per week; the veterinary steroids Equipoise and Winstrol V, one quarter cc every three days, injected into the buttocks, one in one cheek, one in the other.
