    19 MVP were won by steroid cheaters. 7 Cy Young. Keep em out. The drugs gave an unfair advantage.

    Cardinals: intentionally walk Berkman to pitch to Jeff Kent.

    I'm happy for Kent. He deserves it. Makes me think how bad Berkman has been screwed.

    Contemporaries of Berkman with lower OPS for career:

    Edgar Martinez
    Vladimir Guerrero
    David Ortiz
    Chipper Jones
    A-Roid
    Carlos Delgado
    Albert Pujols
    Mike Piazza
    Ken Griffey Jr
    Jim Edmonds
    Miguel Cabrera

    You can cry about defense all you want with Edmonds... doesn't explain Ortiz, Edgar, Piazza, or Cabrera.

    Berkman didn't get opportunity to DH much or he may have been prime Cabrera good...

    They should allow them to be voted out of the hall if put in and we later find out they cheated.

    That could get a lot of guys in who were rumored to have unfairly.

    If you get named in a report or by a teammate it's enough suspicion for me.

    He was most assuredly better as an Astro. Lots of Astros 2B were better than Fox.
