Fast Start

Sporting Goods

The Mets have just improved their chances of getting off to a fast start next year, as "The Run Fairy" Felix Heredia has been suspended for the first 10 games of the season, for steroid use.

It just goes to prove that steroids, no matter how helpful they might be, can not make you a good pitcher on their own.

maybe in seattle it's cool to "act Latin-American," and these guys think that's one way to do it.

seriously though, wonder if american born players are better at getting around it, or latin-american players have more access to stuff that someone tells them is clean, but then isn't...

or if maybe latin americans have a hard time understanding the (english) rules and have a tough time reading (english) supplement labels that would otherwise tell them to avoid certain supplments.

I think the general rule is, 'dont' put anything into your body without clearing it with the trainer.'

I certainly think that there is some misunderstanding along the way. whether they miss the need to do that, whether the trainer doesn't communicate with them properly, or whether they go home in the offseason and take something they shouldn't.

It's not a big enough sample, guys. I think you're looking too much into this. (But if I had to vote, I'd go with Moosesox theory C.)
