Intake of anabolic steroids and some other remedies is prohibited in many sports organizations, including the Major League Baseball (MLB). Athletes who are caught administering banned preparations are sentenced to bans, fines, etc. However athletes know about these aspects, many of them continue applying anabolic steroids and/or other banned medications. As a result, some sportspersons spoil their athletic reputation entirely. Nevertheless, several sportspersons succeed, if even they are caught by anti-doping officers.
Let take the Dominican baseball player Melky Cabrera as an example. He played baseball for San Francisco Giants. He was claimed to be one of the best baseball players. It was believed that he induced winning obviously. But after he tested positive for a steroid, he was sentenced to a 50-game suspension.
Melky Cabrera put efforts to modify the decision and appealed it. He said that a dietary supplement caused his positive. Some individuals tried to help him in that situation. Thus, a fake site was formed. An advertisement for a contaminated supplement was posted. But the trick was unmasked. The baseball player had to serve the ban.
While he served the suspension, the San Francisco Giants understood that they could win without him.
Recently Melky Cabrera obtained a $16 million contract. He will play for the Toronto Blue Jays.
As you see, usage of steroids couldn’t destroy the athletic career of the Dominican baseball player. He continues to play baseball professionally and earn great sums of money.
This is only an example that manifests that application of banned products doesn’t destruct athletic careers in several cases.
