Message: [QUOTE="JordyG, post: 3975391, member: 6819"] Well today's pitchers don't need steroids to cheat. They cheat in other ways. Today it's all about spin rate which increases ball movement. Sports science has consistently shown that a 100 mph fastball is easier to hit than a 93 mph fastball with a high spin rate. Almost every major league pitcher is doing something to increase his spin rate and MLB is turning a blind eye to this type of cheating. Instead they're looking to lower the mound again or some such to slow the dominance of today's pitchers. Ridiculous. So to those that say Clemens records were due to steroid use I say phooey. [/QUOTE]
