That’s the problem. Rodriguez was such a great player. So was Barry Bonds. And Roger Clemens. Future fans will not understand that. All they will see is PED’s.

More than the other two, A-Rod’s whole career is tainted. He came from the South Florida HS football world that was loaded with steroids. His entire career from his rookie year till even today can be fairly questioned. Roger Clemens came to the majors before steroids hit the scene, so some of his career was legit. His years with the Red Sox were on the up and up. His last years with Boston we see a steady decline in his ability, then he goes to Toronto and he bursts off the charts again. Clemens career from Toronto on was chemically enhanced. As for Bonds, it was obvious. When his body changed right in front of everyone, like the Hulk. He got pissed that McGuire and Sosa were getting all the attention, so he topped them, in homers and PED’s.
