Admin Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I wanst aware Ivan Rodriguez was a confirmed roider. I thought he was referring to Bagwell who admitted he took roids (before it was banned) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Texan Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 He'll be in, 2 years probably Do your homework and get to bed Going to be more than 2 years, tbh. Next year they wont get much leverage 'I think' There are 2 sure fire first year candidates. Then there are Hoffman and Vlad. Edgar will start to really get going since his time is running short. Though now that ballots can no longer be secret, who knows. Murray Chass is going to be pissed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Not sure how I feel about Raines getting in. I'm a little surprised that Vlad didn't make it, but his career was kind of short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshFish Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I wanst aware Ivan Rodriguez was a confirmed roider. Canseco said he injected him on his book juiced. He was also reported to be in the ped list from the mitchell report I believe Canseco And Pudge is one of my favorite players of all time, he was lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I dont recall that ever being admitted anywhere. I could be wrong. I don't think there was ever any evidence pointing to Bagwell doing roids. Just that he hit for a lot of power and was a big guy during the steroids era. Pudge had a lot of rumors surrounding him too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Eligible for induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame for the first time in 2011, speculation abounded that some baseball writers have refrained from voting for Bagwell on the premise that he used performance-enhancing drugs, since most of his playing career took place during what is commonly referred to as "the steroid era."[136] In spite of the speculation, no concrete evidence has surfaced linking him to the use of performance-enhancing drugs;[4][137] the closest to evidence that exist is reports that surfaced that he disclosed using of androstenedione to a Houston Chronicle reporter in 1998. This report surfaced at a time when neither the FDA nor MLB had banned its widespread use around the game.[64] Bagwell has not been connected with any of the 104 positive samples in the 2003 survey tests that were leaked.[84] Neither was he summoned for interview nor among the 89 players named in the Mitchell Report released in 2007.[4][138] In regards to Bagwell from Wikipedia (best source in the world clearly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, my gut tells me he did roids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was referring to @Admin and his dumbass saying he heard Bagwell linked. Dummy prolly misspoke. I'm aware of the links to Rodriguez. Canseco was there during the drug culture that existed in Arlington Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 There are a lot of probable roiders in the HOF now (Pudge, Bagwell, Piazza, etc.) so we might as well let Bonds and Clemens in too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Texan Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 In regards to Bagwell from Wikipedia (best source in the world clearly) So Andro. Never was steroids. Everyone fucking used that shit back in the day because nobody knew it was worse for you than the juice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
