A lot of us in Seattle had suspicions about Bret Boone. He had that out-of-nowhere phenomenal season in 2001, and he definitely looked beefed-up. And then the last two years, with the spotlight on steroids, he tailed WAY off with a noticeable drop in power and bat speed, and has now been cut by two teams in three weeks. Makes you wonder.

Were Jose Canseco and Brady Anderson ever seen together ?

Up until the time the Mariners let Boone go announcers Rizzs and Niehaus were lobbying for him to get into the HOF, saying that his numbers compare favorably to (recently HOF inductee) Ryne Sandberg's. They seem to be ignoring Sandberg's
nine Gold Gloves. I tell ya, if Boone makes the Hall then (at least) 1000 other players with similar #s would claim to be deserving.
No doubt Booney was juicing.

Boone? Definitely a user....
Obviously NOT in the last couple of years as Seattle Fans will attest, eh? :-)
