Is Chris Davis on steroids or PEDs?

[HammerDown]

Either? Both? Neither?

My vote for steroids is no but maybe Adderall or some other PEDs?

Discuss.

something......

I mean you could guess he's on something, but until he fails a drug test you can't say much. In this day in age you can't even be a great athlete without people accusing you of PED use.

Adderall? Who cares about that.

Shit, all I care about is steroids and I never want those allowed but Adderall and HGH should be legalized. It makes no sense.

It's a legit question: Is Chris Davis using steroids?

Your answer, please?

I disagree. That is not a legit question. You can't test for PEDs from the stands or your living room couch.

OMG GUIZE HE HIT MOAR HOMERZ THAN EVRY1! MUSS BE ROYDZ!

Herp. Derp.

It's a legitimate question. The guy is shattering records that were set during the steroid era. People are going to ask it.

And you're ill-informed if you think you can test/detect most PEDs these guys are taking now.

Nice try though.

Rick Reilly basically accused Chris Davis of steriods/PED use.

Let's hear from Chris Davis though.

“I have never taken them. I have no reason to. I’ve always been a power hitter. With me, I think the biggest thing was the consistency of the contact,” said Davis, who also hit 33 homers last year in first true full season in the majors. “When I was making contact, I was always hitting for power. I’m a guy that likes to work out a lot. I’m a guy that used to eat whatever I wanted to, but I started getting into my mid-20s, I’ve been seeing that change. So I’ve been taking better care of my body. I have a pretty strict diet. But I’ve never taken [performance-enhancing drugs]. I haven’t felt the need to.”

“People are going to believe what they want to believe. Whether they like me, whether they hate me. Whether they want to see me do well or they want me to fall flat on my face. I mean, I’ve taken tests. I’ve passed all my tests,” said Davis, who had a blood test this spring like all of the Orioles players and has had three to four urine tests since – all have come back negative, he said. “I have never taken PEDs or steroids or whatever you want to call it. That’s the way it is. And I think it is unfair to accuse a guy that there’s nothing that leads to me doing it but speculation. But, at the same time, you are entitled to your own opinion.”

I'm sure the NFL players hope HGH testing never happens.

 

[#1BostonFan]

We all know a lot of the league use HGH.

No he is on nothing he just suddenly remembered how to hit and has become Hank Aaron.

 

[cezero]

Most likely, yes.

But Orioles fans get offended if someone wonders if Chris Davis is on steroids.

 

[romeo212000]

No. He's always had that power. It was his whiffs that made him suck so badly. He still strikes out a ton, but he's somehow managed to figure out how to quit missing everything he swings at.

Its a legit question to ask but you shouldnt just assume until he fails a test which if he is using he will.

Like Lance Armstrong and Barry Bonds? These guys are taking designer drugs; there is no testing for them.

By that logic, it would be wrong to assume that Bonds did it.

Nobody is naive enough to tell people not to question that Bonds did it because he never failed a test.

Next, please.

& damn glad to see him doing so good. May he continue shattering records along with the Migsters hopes of getting another Triple C
