Jack Clark accuses Albert Pujols of taking steroids

Former major-league slugger Jack Clark (340 home runs across parts of 18 seasons) is these days a talk-radio personality, and in keeping with the traditions of the medium he's making some pointed accusations at Albert Pujols of the Angels.
As Dan Caesar of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch writes, Clark recently responded to his co-host's stated belief that Pujols has been a "juicer" as follows:
“I know for a fact he was. The trainer that worked with him, threw him batting practice from Kansas City, that worked him out every day, basically told me that's what he did.”
To hear Clark tell it, in 2000, during his days as Dodgers' hitting coach, Pujols's former personal trainer, Chris Mihlfeld, "had told me what he was doing with ‘Poolie' — threw him batting practice, worked him out, shot him up, all that stuff."
Clark went on to provide some background on his discussions with Mihlfeld:
“I had asked him about conditioning and working me out, what he would do for me, and he asked me whether I had ever thought of taking some steroids. ... He just told me that he wanted me to get started on steroids and he had some other guys that were doing it. He told me that's how he's conditioning this guy that he met out of high school and college and he looked like he was going to be a star, keep an eye on him.''
quote:
Pujols's agent, Dan Lozano, declined to comment on Clark's accusations. Pujols himself has previously denied using performance-enhancing drugs. As for Mihlfeld himself, he provided the following written statement to CBS News:
"I haven't even talked to Jack Clark in close to 10 years. His statements are simply not true. I have known Albert Pujols since he was 18 years old and he would never use illegal drugs in any way. I would bet my life on it and probably drop dead on the spot if I found out he has. As before once again both Albert and myself have been accused of doing something we didn't do."

It is more likely Pujols has been lying about his age.

You're an idiot, Pujols is and always has been 100% clean.
This was refuted by said trainer.

Clark made the accusations on his radio show in St. Louis. Reached by ESPN.com's T.J. Quinn on Friday, former trainer Chris Mihlfeld said: "I haven't even talked to Jack Clark in close to 10 years. His statements are simply not true. I have known Albert Pujols since he was 18 years old, and he would never use illegal drugs in any way.

Jack Clark's best years came from age 31 to 35 during the late '80s to early '90s. Hmmmm.
But Pujols did kind of come out of nowhere during the "steroid era." He'll be scrutinized like everyone else.

What's sad is that we've reached a point where everyone is going to question anyone's success in the MLB because of steroids.
Might as well say frick it and just make it all legal.

They don't need to make them legal. They need to get serious about punishment for taking them.
Teams need to be able to have clauses in players contracts that give them the right to void contracts if a player tests positive and there is no change of steroids that were administered after surgery being the cause.
Unfortunately, the MLBPA won't ever allow it.

and you can put a good amount of blame for the steroid explosion on the MLBPA considering they always worked against the league in establishing penalties and testing and shite. its about time the MLBPA is finally starting to come around
