I think that steroids shouldn’t be in sports because it isn’t a real fair game when somebody is playing with fake muscles. I think steroids are just another way of cheating and getting more attention and impressing coaches so athletes can get more money.

Steroids are a kind of pill or shot that help people gain muscles in a few weeks or months. Some steroids give people up to 15 pounds of muscle in two weeks. Some baseball players are using steroids illegally.

Former baseball player Ken Caminity, named Most Valuable Player in 1996, has confessed about his addiction to steroids while playing in his MVP year.

Most baseball players who are using steroids are trying to get more money or attention so that they will be more famous.

When the newscaster or press walk into some locker rooms after a game, a few players would try to avoid the topic of steroids or walk away. After the first Red Sox-Angels game the press talked about steroids and a few people left the room.

I think that Major League Baseball should test every baseball player for steroids and if they’re caught, they should be suspended for the season. They shouldn’t be able to simply pay a fine to start playing.
