I was very disappointed when Collabello became part of all this. His long trail through to the majors through Independent League Baseball was a feel-good story.

Reminded me of seeing Greg Zaun in the Mitchell Report - After I had seen him 'Call His Shot' in the 1999 Hall-of-Fame Game (Yeah, he actually DID do it!!).

Seems more and more, like the famous tennis player, that new drugs are put on this list that are now deemed as performance enhancing, but I can't help but also think, with what is put in our food/drink nowadays, that some of these steroids also get put in them?

I am all for drug testing and I detest the cheaters to no end, but I also think mistakes are made and/or these are getting into peoples bodies by other means than simply knowingly ingesting them.
