These are a list of players that I think have used, and benefitted from steroids in recent years. Agree or disagree?
1. McGwire
2. Sosa
3. Bret Boone
4. Bonds
5. Giambi (juicing again?)
6. Palmeiro
7. Juan Gonzalez
McGwire and Giambi are no brainers. If it turns out that Giambi is back on his game through hard work, I'll be very surprised and impressed.
Palmeiro is busted and can't deal with it. It is unfortunate because I liked him,and his stats, a lot before this all happened. Ofcourse maybe we shouldn't be surprised. Do you think the Viagra endorsement was a clue?
Juan Gon and Bret Boone are obvious to me, and I'm surprised that not many people associate them with steroids (maybe you all do,write to let me know). Gonzalez won a minor league batting crown and hit zero homeruns in that season. Four years later, he was hitting 40+ in the bigs. He's a monster that became (suddenly) riddled with health problems. Moreover, from what we know now, he was in the right place at the right time to get involved. It just makes too much sense. As for Boone, he was an average hitter with minimal power (12-20 HR's per season) until he busted out. After all the stuff started circulating about steroids, he becomes injured often and disappears. Sounds familiar doesn't it?
Bonds and Sosa are guilty as sin. I'm not against a player working out and getting more powerful...but these two guys changed everything about their games. These two were leadoff hitter early in their careers. They were speedy punchers who had some bat speed and power...but nothing like what we see from them now. Both were very productive late in their careers, and then both got injured and disappeared.
Don't you think that it is odd that Sosa, Bonds, Giambi, and Boone all got injured around the same time, the same time that the steroid story broke. And they find it very hard to shake these injuries and get back to the game. If it was Eckstien, Jeter, and Carl Crawford...maybe I wouldn't be so suspicious. Look at the facts and tell me I'm wrong.
Let's not forget Brady Anderson and Todd Hundley.They were juiced up too. I'm not against anyone having a career year, or a breakout year...but these two guys were 'roided up pretty good.
Tell me what you think...I've been told that I'm wrong before...so it doesn't bother me.If you think I'm right...gimme a Hoorah!!
