It's not cheating... If you use Vaseline...

It's Bulldog sunscreen...ok'd by MLB to help a pitcher get a better grip on the ball.

Ortiz passes all the drug tests, but they dont test for HGH  

Papi's on the HRT...

Even though these guys are passing tests, doesn't mean they aren't using synthetic test etc. They just have it down to a science where when they are tested, they know how to bring their test levels back to the very top allowance...So these guys can go over the limit allowed all the time and when a test comes up, bring it back down to the high end. I'd love to see the test results for every player tested. I bet every one of them comes up on the high end of the spectrum...

Does anyone know if they test players during/after the playoffs? Or is it just the regular season. If they don't test for the playoffs, Ortiz could load up on test and anadrol and be a monster...

Phil uses vaseline on the soles of his feet to discreetly slide over the line.

And Kai lubes up his grapefruit for easy entry

I'll respect Lester if he says "I don't want to talk about it" or "Next question".

However, if he comes out with some bullshit story about how his glove had just ripped and it's his lucky glove so he glued it back together but would never cheat because he's better than that...

lol... then he will be a moron and i'll dislike the dude forever.  Don't make it worse & insult everyone's intelligence.

1- It isn't Vaseline.
2- is not a banned substance
3-gives you control on the cutter but it doesn't affect the way a ball is hit.
4-nine out of ten pitchers uses it.

WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHH

WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHH

'Giant booger' or rosin? Jon Lester says he doesn't have a cold

CBS SPORTSLINE | on Thu, Oct 24, 6:55 PM
Jon Lester says he keeps a rosin bag in his glove between starts, hence the 'giant booger' near the thumb. (USATSI)BOSTON -- The odd green substance in his glove may look like "a giant booger" in the Zapruder-like snapshots from Game 1 videos, Red Sox[1] pitcher Jon Lester[2] said Thursday, but it was pure rosin. And nothing more."I didn't do anything," Lester said, addressing a sizable group of reporters near the Red Sox dugout during batting practice before Game 2 of the World Series[3]. "J...

The substance used was apparently rosin...Many pitchers put rosin on their hat, arms neck etc...I didn't think have rosin in the glove itself was ok to do but apparently it's not a problem...
