I'm very surprised that we are now heavily into the PED time frame of HOF balloting and no one has commented on the fact that the most recent selectees are almost all pitchers, Maddux, Glavine, Pedro, Big Unit, Smoltz (most likely) with only Frank Thomas being a position player. This could continue with guys like Schilling & Mussina garnering more votes as the PED position players begin to show up more and more on future ballots. Is it realistic to think that the only "clean" players during this era were pitchers? Why do we assume that they were not using?
In my opinion, Bagwell was a user. His minor league and amateur resume just do not add up to his major league power numbers. I know anything's possible but....... Piazza's minor league numbers match up somewhat better but did anyone see him during is first year or two in the minors? Was there a big difference in body size and type from his major league physique? I would also like to make a comprehensive list of known users who finished with the best career stats. Off the top of my head, these are the ones that I can think of: Bonds McGwire Sosa Sheffield Clemens Pettitte Palmeiro M. Ramirez I. Rodriguez A. Rodriguez Bagwell (IMHO) J. Gonzalez M. Tejada Braun Canseco Ortiz Does anyone else have any others that would be surefire HOF'ers based on their career stats? Looks like I missed one big name on my list, just added Ortiz now.
