He was interviewed the pre game show for Rangers last night and stated firmly that no player associated with steroids will ever be elected to the Hall.

I thought it was an interesting comment but what does he mean? Does he mean players who tested positive like Braun? Or players who never were proven steroid users but self admitted like McGwire or David Ortiz? Or guys who were never admitted or proven but speculated like Pudge Rodriguez?

dear MLB HOF, in case you missed it, it's 2013. let's try to evolve.

you cant just keep them out because they did it. that year with McGwire and Sosa was the best baseball season I ever witnessed as a kid.

I think he will get in too, his association with Canseco probably means he did do PEDs at some point but its all speculation with him. I think he will be one of the guys who sneak in.

So what is a PED?

I mean caffine, Nicotine, sudafed, ibuprofen, etc can enhance performance technically.

They cheated even though there was no specific rule or test at the time?

So do we take Mantle Aaron and Mays' records away if we can prove they drank clubhouse coffee?

PEDs are the only thing that makes baseball interesting. I say make them mandatory.

Yes.

There were many specific rules. They were written by legislators who write rules to which we are all subject.

Any baseball player who broke the law to get drugs that enhanced on-field performance should be banned and never allowed in the hall of fame.

Andro was not illegal neither was creatine

Both are available at the time in drug stores and college weight rooms.

So we're not talking about andro and creatine then.
