Daniel Murphy On Steroids
Daniel Murphy is one of the most wholesome players in baseball, but he surprisingly accused of using steroids for his high rated postseason performance. Such act leaves me speechless and initiates a discussion on whether or not he used these drugs.
Steroids are a great way to increase upper body strength, but they do not help with hand-eye coordination or bat speed. The side effects of these drugs can include increased acne and musculature growth in places you don’t want it.
Every player in the major leagues is tested for performance enhancing drugs at least twice a year. Random tests are also available, so why would someone who has been known as one of this generation’s power hitters put his career on danger by taking steroids? He won’t because they’re not worth it.
Daniel Murphy hit a career high in the home runs this year where it was only 14. If steroids were to blame, then we would expect him to have shown signs of their effects during regular seasons and not just when he got hot as an All-Star.
There are reports that the New York Mets have hired a new coach who is well known for helping left-handed players find their strength stroke. It’s no surprise then, with these chances as similar and Murphy hitting seven home runs in this postseason so far – there’ll be none of those pesky PEDs taking hold within him.
His fans should be happy that he is still playing well after all these years, even if it isn’t easy. There’s nothing more satisfying than seeing someone with no chance at success achieve their dream just by hanging in there and never giving up.
The Daniel Murphy Pivot is one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen. He’s 32 years old and he still manages to get more than enough power ahead with every pitch, making it look easy as pie for him.
Murphy’s play in the majors is comparable to that of Bryce Harper, who has spent seven full seasons with his current team.
If Murphy continues popping off like he did in the past year, then surely this will make him one of decade’s best baseball stories.
