Pettitte to human growth hormone.

HGH is not a steroid. It is very useful in healing from injuries and thousands of MDs nationwide prescribe it for their (non-athlete) patients every single day. Women need growth hormones as well, to help ward off Lupus, MS and other ailments of menopause. To castigate ball players for using HGH is just silly. Everyone who needs it should be able to use it.

It must have some bad ju-ju, though, because the NFL slapped Rodney Harrison with a four-game suspension at the beginning of the year because he tested positive for it. And he was coming back from a massive knee injury the season before.

Who would have thought, all these MLB players with Lupus/MS and menopause.
