Is The Ball Juiced

Many players are on pace for 50 plus homeruns this year? Is major league baseball juicing the ball in order to offset the decline in homeruns that the ban on steroids would have caused?

    Better althletes. Legal substances associated with better training helps as well. I love the offensive game and monstrous stats, although a nice 4-3 game is great to watch nothing beats a record chasing homerun season. I know its tainted but 1998 was my favorite season to watch.

    I want to add that I bet quite a few ballplayers that are not associated with suspected steroid abuse does not meen that they "never" dabbled in them, I know a bunch of guys that took steroids in their mid twenty's who were not "big" and certainly not that strong, did use them once or twice and got a base frame and never took them again and maintained a muscular build much more than what they had before. I bet that is what happened with a lot of guys that have been in the majors.
