According to an article by Jeff Passan of ESPN, the MLB recently issued a memo warning players about the dangers of buying sexual enhancement pills at gas stations and online. According to Passan, "...at least two players this year were suspended for performance-enhancing drugs and said the banned substances found in their urine came from the unregulated products..." This season, only three players have been suspended for PEDs at the major league level- Red Sox pitcher Steven Wright, Oakland A's pitcher Frankie Montas, and Seattle Mariners shortstop Tim Beckham.
"We know from experience," the memo said, "that a number of these sexual or male enhancement products -- which are sold online, at retail stores, and on the black market, both in the United States and internationally -- contain anabolic steroids and other prohibited substances.
"For this reason, we strongly urge players against taking any sexual or male enhancement product, from any source."
Well, you're officially on notice, MLB players, no more buying horny goat weed or spanish fly at the local Valero.
