I wouldn't put anyone on the list at all. Why the hell wouldn't you. They weren't illegal by baseball standards until 2003 anyways. There will always be exceptions if you look hard enough. Babe never played against black players. The guys in the 60's were doing amphetamines all over the place. It's super tricky nowadays.

I agree, but what about players testing positive since the ban?

Also interesting not to see many pitchers, since the ban on steroids more pitchers have tested positive than all other position players combined.

the relief pitchers, the ones with 80+ appearances, they are the ones I highly suspect and I'm sure those names will surface... but, finding out that a guy like Juan Rincon or LaTroy Hawkins used steroids isn't really a sexy headline.

Everyone is looking for that sexy headline, that's why the media makes such a big issue of it. My point is that at the time it wasn't cheating and far more than just the glamorous players were using them.

Look at how quickly these guys are coming back from injury and much more frequently they are available.

he also lost his hair towards the end of his career, though that could be result of genetics and stress..
