2017 MLB Season Thread

Neither of these have been proven and I doubt either of them. I doubt them even less than David Ortiz.

You really doubt Ortiz?

The fact is, it's impossible to know who didn't juice, which is why the juicers shouldn't be excluded from the hall anyway

 

[Mexi]

Canseco says a juicer is already in the hall

 

[elcheato]

I mean, Mike Piazza straight up admitted to taking what is now considered a PED by the MLB

 

[Mexi]

Peds should be legalized

Also the suspensions are laughable

Bartolo has become an icon
Nelly Cruz is still hittinf bombs and we don't care

Melky and Dee Gordon still got paid and we all forgot about their suspensions

Puig has turned into a replacement level scrub, hasnt He?

I had a chance to see Berrios pitch in the low minors a few years back and was quite impressed.  He wasn't ready for prime time last season, but seems to be ready now.

The Tigers keeping Dixon Machado in the majors just to save him from waivers is hilarious to me. Nobody is claiming Dixon Machado, every org has a backup infielder with a good glove who can't hit.

some homers and good defense in the 8 hole

I see him being traded eventually

 

[Mexi]

You know who sucks snipe, adrian gonzalez
Zero power. He doesnt even hit warning track anymore

 

[Mexi]

Brett Cecil currently Rick Ankieling snipe

If you look at my previous post, I didn't doubt him.

Just because we don't know we should let them in the Hall? I disagree with that. There's a lot of guys who didn't roid either, and we know for those who used steroids, they made a huge difference. The 90's has a lot of video game stats due to steroids. The effects are easily cheating, and just because we don't know everyone who has used them, doesn't mean the clear violators should get away with it.

Personally, I'm okay letting the one time guys in like Piazza or Petitte, but the guys who have used steroids over and over again and lied about using them have no reason to be in the Hall.

 

[bosoxlover12]

they absolutely belong in the hall

we're not talking about one guy cheating and providing an unfair advantage over the rest. Obviously just guesstimating here, but Id say from 1995-2005 probably 40% of players used some form of performance enhancers

it's part of the game. all these roiders should definitely be in the hall, as they represent the era they played in

 

[Pugz]

this isnt combat sports where peds could literally end another person's life. at the end of the day, baseball is still a team sport. the amount of users was outstanding too. we shouldnt discredit players for their individual stats because they may or may not have used.

I think we found out who they shouldve traded and it wasnt Kemp. Damn I wonder what they couldve gotten for Puig when his trade value was high.

he's lucky he got paid lol.

Red Sox are starting to play well. Pomeranz pitched well last night, Boagarts had his first homerun. Maybe this is a turning point... Need to see more first.
