Ted Williams, Mike Schmidt & Chipper Jones admitted to using greenies before and during games. Mays reportedly took liquid amphetamines while with the Mets. Sounds fairly similar to McGwire's Andro use. Which wasnt banned at the time.
Selig banned Greenies in 05. So amphetamines, a known performance enhancer was commonly available in baseball since the end of WW2. How many immortals where users during this time? It's hard to believe it was a small number.
What about adderal or ritalin?
Tanozolol, which Palmeiro tested positive for was comonly found in beef for years qnd still runs rampant in Mexico. He has never admitted to using and wasn't charged with perjury after testing positive because they couldn't prove that he maliciously took it.
I have no doubt he was a user, but I also believe there is definitely abusers in the hall.
That being said, its hard to blame any of the abusers for their actions. The window of opportunity they have to make money is so small. Of course there will be boundary pushers.

Do you have any evidence that Piazza or Bagwell used steroids? Accusations without evidence are worthless.
Caminiti can claim whatever he wants, but without names and evidence, his claims aren't believable.
None of the rest are steroids and are irrelevant to my post. Also, using something allowed by MLB is not the same as using something banned.
