All Dominicans are tested for steroids for playing in the MLB

The Major League Baseball put efforts to stop using steroids. It wants to nip doping in the bud. Then it will be able to achieve the big show. A location where the efforts of the MLB are used and clearly observed is the Dominican Republic.
Those that live in the Dominican Republic desire to play professional baseball in the U. S. This is not only a dream. This desire becomes real. So, the whole family drives. Unluckily, numerous individuals are lured to use steroids and other related medicines to achieve their goal.
The Dominican Republic is a country in which numerous persons use steroids and other drugs which promote performance. That’s why a sportsperson from this location is asked whether he has taken steroids or other related preparations. Of course, this individual claims that he has never doped because tests are performed and anybody fears to be caught taking any controlled substance.
The MLB subjects to tests athletes from the Dominican Republic. Thus, one year 13 persons out of 40 tested amateur athletes from this location tested positive. The MLB plans to tests Dominicans and to punish those who dope.
It is said that the number of Dominicans that are sent to the MLB is essentially higher than the number of players that are sent from all countries of the Latin America.
The MLB tries to push steroids out of baseball. Amateur players are taught about risks for their health related to steroids. They are taught about negative consequences that may be caused by steroids.
The financial position of the Dominican Republic is a great problem in this case. The average salary is about 8, 5000 dollars per year there. To receive a signing bonus of 180, 000 dollars is a real achievement for any Dominican. That’s why sportspeople from this location are especially inclined to dope for such perspectives. They want to obtain a contract for playing professional baseball in the MLB. They want to obtain it for well-being of their families and for better life in future. Getting a contract means moving from a rented small house to a private home, from poverty to normal conditions of life, from travelling by public transport to driving own car.
Actually, administration of steroids is not a problem just in that is limited within the Dominican Republic. It is a problem which destroys the whole world. No one sportsperson can be sure whether he competes against a person that has natural skills and talents or against an individual that uses steroids and other related medicines. That’s why it is important to nip intake of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs in the bud.
 Youth must be taught about dangers linked with doping not only in the Dominican Republic or just in the U. S. but everywhere.
