Oh boy... Thank you so much for asking that. Thank you, so... so much.
Baseball’s Broken Hamate Plague – UPDATED | ProXR
July 28, 2017 – UPDATE
Two years since I first posted this, we’re still here. Young MLB prospects and NCAA players STILL breaking their hamate bone swinging a baseball bat. Most recently the Nationals prospect Juan Soto, Yankees prospect Ben Ruta, Blue Jays prospect Anthony Alford and Vladdimir Guerrero Jr., Cardinals prospect Patrick Wisdom, Royals Hunter Dozier, Gators Mike Rivera, Patriots Nate Eikhoff, Notre Dame Kyle Fiala, Gators Austin Langworthy, Columbia College Jordan Barchus, Yankees prospect Jose Carrera, Red Sox prospect Bobby Dalbec, Rays prospect Kevin Padlo, Braves prospect Dustin Peterson… and there are so many more, I just don’t have time to include the many who have broken their hamate over the past two years.
So, here's what we've established on this thread:
- You should never suspect a player could be using PEDs without some kind of evidence
- Evidence, according to rich, is radical body change and a spike in numbers
- Most of the players who have actually tested positive for PEDs exhibited neither a radical body change or a spike in numbers
- Eric Thames, despite not going through a radical body change can reasonably be suspected of PED usage, at least by rich
- Rich thinks he's painted someone besides himself in a corner
It's like playing chess with a pigeon.
So, you list one major leaguer besides Stanton, and a link to a promotional article on site selling bats that magically save players from breaking their hands from swinging a bat.
Way to go, half-wit.
As an update:
6. rich has added "talking points" to his list of potential criteria for reasonable steroid suspicion
7. only talking points approved by rich are valid
Probably honestly.Is every high school and college ball player who breaks his hamate bone swinging on "steroids" too Slinky?
Lolz

Testing positive for steroids certainly seems to be something that happens at a higher frequency in the minors, so you might be on to something. Good point, retard.
Never had a set-list of potential criteria. Been over that many times.

You mentioned radical body change and number spikes as potential criteria. You later added talking points. I agree that you never provided a bullet-pointed list of criteria.
When your position switches from "I never said that" to "I never said exactly that," people that aren't retarded realize you're moving goalposts.
That's three.
I'm proud of you.

My position has never changed.
Do you think it's germane to this discussion that Francisco Cervelli served a 50 game suspension for PED usage?
Of course they have, you half-wit.
Reread the thread.
Fair enough. We can scrap him. Now, go ahead and show me where all of these other players listed are on PED's. 1 down, many to go... lol
