Yes you cannot take just anyone off the street and put them on a regimen and expect then to magically become a baseball player. So apparently I was being unclear before, so let me just give my argument a baseline. I'm assuming everyone at the minor and pro ball level has a certain level of hand eye coordination that…

Provided that you are doing the workouts, you will always get results from taking P.E.D.'s whether or not they put you on a level comparable with other players who were more talented to begin with who are also taking P.E.D.'s is another discussion.
