@schwizzle_nizzle said in Gerrit Cole didn't actually cheat:
There wasn't a sarcasm tag, but I still read it that way. Love it!
It was definitely a sarcastic post. Not many seem to catch it. He’s saying that the rule book says they can’t use foreign substances but since spider tack is domestic then Cole didn’t cheat.

“On Tuesday night vs the Royals, Gerrit Cole posted his lowest spin rate with his 4-seamer, curve, and slider in ANY start since 2017.” Yikes
-
Trevor Bauer mentioned in one of his videos to not be surprised if there’s pitcher going to IL bc of finger or wrist injury. Due to the no substance enforcement….. Looking at you Aaron Civale (on my fantasy team)

@hustlinowl_psn said in Gerrit Cole didn't actually cheat:
neither did the steroid users because the substances were not on the ban list nor did Bonds ever fail a test
Wasnt steroids they were using, it was HGH
and testosterone. and you are correct, it wasnt on the banned list when most of these guys used them. but only cause they were new and no one knew about them.
Got on the banned list pretty quick once it was revealed thats what they were doing.
In any event it is cheating cause they used a substance to enhance performance and give an advantage that others didnt have,HGH isn’t a steroid? Testosterone is a steroid? Yeah you’re right if it’s produced naturally by your body, however what those guys were taking was synthetic and therefore an anabolic steroid. Same goes for Androstinedion and other drugs. What an ignorant statement.
Performance enhancing drug does not equal anabolic steroid; that is a specific, distinct substance. They are used towards the same goal though.

Well they were illegal... Unless you want to suggest it must in the roller book in which case shooting a player mid game isn't in the rules either.

Dude those substances are literally anabolic steroids. Look it up. They’re synthetic hormones that are designed to increase bulk and speed up the recovery process.
And here is the exact definition:
a synthetic steroid hormone that resembles testosterone in promoting the growth of muscle. Such hormones are used medicinally to treat some forms of weight loss and (illegally) by some athletes and others to enhance physical performance.

I think Cole takes a lot more heat due to his status, but It was estimated that 80% of pitchers were using a sticky stuff. Bauer just hates Cole, that’s why he’s been named countless times. But so far the last two starts Cole still has been solid.

And yes those substances were federally illegal to use outside of a prescribed course of rehabilitative treatment by a licensed physician. So if a baseball player was using those substances to gain an advantage they were doing so in a criminal way.

Oh I agree but no offense coming from a Yankee fan all of a sudden saying Colts didn’t cheat is funny
