Its funny how most of the people that are angry about this are people that don't really play the game professionally. Forget about the past and just concentrate on the future.

MLB Network analysis and some other information

Its funny how most of the people that are angry about this are people that don't really play the game professionally. Forget about the past and just concentrate on the future.

agreed 100%....if ayone here watches the MLB Network...It host harold Reynolds, Al Leiter, Sean Casey...who are all ball players and then Matt Vasgersian and Tom Verducci host who have never set foot on a field.

When you watch the MLB Netowork, especially during this AROD thing, all the ball players were on Alex's side and defending hjim by saying that alot of players took it and it was a thing to do back then. It wasn't illegal and guys could easily get away with it, and there was a need to use to perform at a very high level.

Then Matt Vasgersain and Verducci start sayaying that it is going to ruin Alex's legacy..........Alex stil has 9 or more years of baseball to play to prove himself to these types of peoples.

Note to everybody following this story...


Alex admitted to taking steroids from 2001-2003...he averaged over 50 HR's a year during that time period, and all those years were with the Texas Rangers. His excuse was that he took it due to his huge contract, putting enormous pressure on him and we Yankee fans know that Alex is not good at dealing with a high amount of pressure in any situation.

Alex then realized that he was ruining his career and was acting too selfish and admitted his guilt several times during his interview.


Realize this......

Alex could have lied about the amount of time beiNG that he was only accused of using it one year which was 2003........ALEX ADMITTED TO USING IT LONGER SHOWING THAT HE WENT ALL OUT AND TOLD THE TRUTH.

ALSO REALIZE

If you take out those three years in Texas were he averaged a total of over 150 Hr's and several RBI's.....he is still a ballet for the Hall of fame.

Give him another 10 years in NY + From his first season to 2000(when he was clean) and we know that he can still easily break the 600 Hr mark.
