1. Not so much anymore, every so often someone will get popped for PEDs but it's happening less and less frequently.

2. Perhaps, but it's not so much about pitching faster it's about rehabilitation between starts and being able to throw more pitches and throw more games. The baseball regular season is 162 games, so it's a marathon of a season. I will say you can certainly hit more homeruns on steroids.


The playoffs in baseball are almost unmatched in attention to detail and intensity, hockey is up there as well. Playoff hockey is fucking brilliant, you Brits should get on THAT train.
