Joe D,

Being a life-long Cincinnati Reds fan, I have KGJ as a dark horse as far as someone being named that has NEVER been mentioned before.


My reasons:

1) Power hitter in the 1990's

2) Played on the West Coast (closer to Oakland and San Francisco) and was a team mate of Bret Boone

3) Friend of Barry Bonds and was supposedly at a dinner party when Bonds was talking about juicing because of the attention Sosa and McGwire (two lesser players in Bonds' opinion) were getting during the Home Run chase

4) Demanded a trade to the Reds and only the Reds (instead of taking Seattle's 8 year $140 million dollar contract and also DID NOT go Free Agency route) then signed with the Reds. Had ONE good year before MAJOR injuries hit

5) Lives in Orlando, THE town where one of the largest busts occured. A Pharmacy and some employees were arrested for distributing steroids, HGH and other PED's around the country.

I am not saying KGJ DID juice, I am just saying there are reasons to raise some suspicion. So, if the Mitchell report comes out and KGJ's name is on it, I wont be surprised, unlike a LOT of other people.
