PEDs

Another player has been suspended for PED use.
My solution to the problem is this -- All players use supplements to help them recover from minor injuries due to the grind of the long season. MLB should either market or license a line of supplements that are guaranteed to be PED free. If players use only these supplements, they will not test positive for any banned substance.

Do we even know what substance Colabello used? This isn't necessarily going to make a difference for everyone. Some players are going to use PEDs just to become better players, not to recover from injuries.

He was suspended for dehydrochlormethyltestosterone (turbanol) use. From what I have read about PEDs, this is not a really heavy one. It is, however, on the banned substances list. It used to be in some of GNC's supplements, but they have taken it out.
Here is some information on it:
