This problem is so covered up in the minor leagues….it's everywhere. Dominican and Venezuelan players are all juiced up and 90% of them get away with it. In addition, birth records are also manipulated and 25 year olds are playing as 19 year olds.  Lets clean this game up and require accurate legal documentation of birth!!
