HGH for Anti Aging

Do baseball teams have knowledge of baseball players steroid use to sign them to long term contracts?

Leaked reports about Paul Lo Duca and Gagne indicate teams already have plenty of information about who uses steroids and HGH and who doesn't. Has anyone tried to do an analysis of players who sign contracts longer than 2 years after age 35 to determine who is using drugs illegally and getting rewarded? Rivera and Posada get 3 and 4 year contracts worth $97.5 million. Wow. Seems like the Yankees know they are buying with juice added.

1. testing has been in place for a while..until real proof instead of the Boston Red Sox report that has everyone outraged of when why and how..nobody is being misrepresented..my Grandmother takes steroids and many of these guys had Dr. supervised perscriptions.. think about how the teams ..the league ..the players association..all wanted more..more more,,and were all a party to this behavior..Sosa vs McGwirre was exploited for everything they could get..even at ESPN pointing the finger..is a Boston thing..tied into their stupid politics..and superiority thing..they actually had a team employee get arrested for possession and nothing was done
2. Mitchell report indicates that teams at least have a suspicion about who juices or not; but my guess is that information would prevent them from signing anyone either long term or at all - as they are: (a) likely to stop using once they get the big contract and have their numbers drop (b) physically break down (tear tendons, etc - common for juicers)
3. The Mitchell Report named some Baseball GMs who investigated some players and their ties to possible Steroids use. Some investigations came up with Steroids being a part of that Player's history and that was ignored anyways....such as when Gagne was traded for by the BoSox's Theo Epstein.
