I think said he got so many games because he tried to interfere with their investigation and he was the ring leader of biogenesis...and it was the third time he was caught...
MLB drug tests were antiquated..any player could take stuff that wouldnt be detected...."I never failed a drug test" is no longer a valid player argument..
