It was a year or so ago when Jason Starks or someone else on ESPN.com had a breakdown of pitchers and hitters that TESTED POSITIVE. I'm sure it's changed some since then, but even if it's a 50-50 split, that still means higher percentage of pitchers than hitters are doing it since most rosters have a 14:10 ratio.

You have an impressive list of hitters, but Palmerio and Lawton are the ONLY ONES that tested positive. I believe that Roger Clemens has been regular user, but I don't consider him as part of the group of players that have tested positive. Bonds, Mac, Sosa and others you've listed have NOT TESTED POSITIVE. So please, don't confuse players you believe have used but HAVE NOT tested positive with those that HAVE tested postive.

As for who I believe is or isn't juicing, I think they all are and I don't really care one way or the other if they are. What annoys me is people who look at the situation with blinders on and choose to believe only what they want to believe and act as if no one ever cheated before to gain an advantage over other players.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.
