No he doesn’t...he cheated. Period.
By cheating you mean his use of testosterone and HGH? So other than providing him with a competitive advantage of quicker recovery time, ask yourself did it improve his batting average or fielding? One could Rgue that it may have given him additional strength to muscle say 15-20 more homers than usual but so what.
If these PEDs were all they claim then how is that the guys in the minors, who are still in the minors, have not made the jump to the bigs let alone are today’s stars.
Hitting 3 out of 10 is still the gold standard in baseball and the last I checked only 26 players are currnently above that mark. ARod gas a lifetime average of .300 and if he was getting a “boost” from the PEDs then can someone explain to me his .263 post season career average.
