It's really impossible to say without firsthand knowledge of both the testing standards and what's on the banned list. What's the banned substance that players use when they get a cold or something? It's a common medicine but on the banned substance list. One player said publicly that it DID give him more energy. So are they testing for that regularly? Too many unknowns to make an educated assessment. I'd hazard to guess that a LOT of players ARE using that, but steroids on the same level as baseball, I highly doubt it.
