If you can build up endurance and build your low body it will help a pitcher performance without a doubt.
If I was a player during that era, I would have used steriods as well. Everybody around you is doing it to get a competitive edge and this is how you make your living to support your family.
I also have a problem punishing these athletes for steriod when MLB and the Players Union basically encouraged it. Why was it NOT banned by baseball? Because both sides were making too much money. Yes, they knew about it and they turned their backs on the problem. Only when the media got a hold of the story did they do something.
