I have an ugly feeling steroid use in baseball is wildly out of control, and an awful lot of the top stars have something to hide.

There was random, unannounced steroid testing of all Major Leaguers this year, and 250 follow up tests. The positive results were about 7%. Not as bad as some had claimed, but it's too much. Also, they didn't have the tests for THG last year. Mandatory testing with penalties begins next year.

Gotta disagree with you on this. It was not really random or unannounced testing -- it was during spring training, and the players all knew the test was coming.
