No, but if since you were in little leagues and low minors the PEDs were available (and maybe even encouraged), your chances were enhanced to getting a ticket out of a 3rd-world-country.
Furthermore I don't know what the law is in their native country and the type of enforcement that exists there.

MLB Press Release 8/5/2013 3:18 P.M. ET
Yankees' Rodriguez disciplined New York third baseman suspended 211 regular season games through 2014 season
Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig announced today that third baseman Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees
has been suspended without pay for the remainder of the 2013 Championship Season and Postseason and the
entire 2014 Championship Season for violations of the Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program and the
Basic Agreement.
Rodriguez's discipline under the Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program is based on his use and possession
of numerous forms of prohibited performance-enhancing substances, including Testosterone and human Growth
Hormone, over the course of multiple years. Rodriguez's discipline under the Basic Agreement is for attempting to
cover-up his violations of the Program by engaging in a course of conduct intended to obstruct and frustrate the
Office of the Commissioner's investigation. The suspension, which will become effective on Thursday, August 8th,
will cover 211 Championship Season games and any 2013 Postseason games in which Rodriguez otherwise would
have been eligible to play.
Under the terms of the Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program, Rodriguez's suspension will be stayed until
the completion of his appeal if Rodriguez files a grievance challenging his discipline.

"you can never have enough pitching"
lackey rolled his ankle in the second.
it went in an unnatural direction.
looked like he might be done for the year.
but they taped him up, and somehow he's back out there...
Lackey should be called Un-Lucky! He pitches a gem, gets injured and they don't score a bloody run for him - these Sawx, who are the best or 2nd best offensive team in beisbol.
silent bats during the first game of a road trip is nothing new.
i remember it happening constantly when tito was in charge.
look for them to put a 10-spot on the 'stros tonight...
She's been dubbed "Fountain Mom" and radio personality Danny Boi from 96.5 The Buzz in Kansas City has been on the Fountain Mom case. He's reporting these vital details:
• She's 25 and from Des Moines. So breathe easy, Kansas City, she's not one of yours.
• She faced a $3,000 bond for her jaunt. See, kids, fountain-climbing doesn't come without consequences.
• She was arrested for trespassing, resisting arrest, and — wait for it — soliciting an officer with gratuitous favors.
he definitely needs to learn to turn and walk quietly to first base...

The Red Sox batting order has more tenacity and patience than the Japanese in WW2. Houston's Cosart is shaping up to be our latest victim. His ERA was just under 1 in 4 starts coming in. And he has always gone at least 6 innings, I think. We've already scored 2 runs against him, and we've made him throw 73 pitches through 4.
