Baseball was also a bit different, because it was assumed for a long time that the PEDs would make you stronger but wouldn't necessarily help with the specific skills that allow baseball players to differentiate themselves from one another. As it turned out, the ability to tolerate heavier workouts and recover faster from daily wear and tear proved to be tremendously alluring to baseball player. Who, lets note, spent the 1960s downing amphetamines like M&Ms.
The one discouraging note, has been the changing nature of injuries among PED users. Notably connective tissue injuries that are particularly devastating to one's pitching arm.
