February 17, 200917 yr Just saying. I have a friend who played ball with a former Mariner and he said the Mariners back in the day were using steroids regularly. Hamstrings go out once he gets to Cincy. From what I understand hammy's are at a potential risk coming off the juice because for such a long time they compensated for the growth of the quad muscle. Not saying he did, but many have said he has done it the right way...so how surprised would you be if it comes out that he did some juice in the Pacific Northwest?
February 17, 200917 yr Honestly, I would be 0% surprised at any major leaguer saying they used steroids. That's how bad's it gotten for me. With Junior, you do make good points about the post-Seattle injuries. You never know, but it looks kind of bad.

Overly, if it was working and he was putting up those kinds of numbers why quit? If he injured his hamstrings after and he knew they would rid him of that problem why not go back? If he already had used them his charachter and judgement would have already taken a hit, what was the point in quitting before they started testing? Taking all of this into account I still wouldn't be shocked, just more than a little surprised. Does this friend know Boone or someone before his time?
February 17, 200917 yr Really? You guys wouldn't be shocked? I'd be floored. He's the one player I would never expect it of.
February 17, 200917 yr I wouldn't be shocked. When his injuries began to pile up it was one of the first reasons I cited.
February 17, 200917 yr Really? You guys wouldn't be shocked? I'd be floored. He's the one player I would never expect it of. Why? Breaking down of the body and injuries are one of the most notable side effects of roids.
February 17, 200917 yr Nothing involving steroids and baseball would shock me anymore :madman: I'd be more angry than shocked.
February 17, 200917 yr Ok, i'll admit it. I'd be shocked, I just don't see the mass on him that these other guys had.
February 17, 200917 yr Ok, i'll admit it. I'd be shocked, I just don't see the mass on him that these other guys had. I'm with you. The only mass he added over the years was to his mid section.
February 17, 200917 yr Really? You guys wouldn't be shocked? I'd be floored. He's the one player I would never expect it of. I was literally going to say the same exact thing. It'd be hard for me to watch baseball ever again if I found out Griffey was on the juice. To me he is one of the few lights of legitimacy in the league through the steroid era. I would never be able to forgive him.
February 17, 200917 yr Ok, i'll admit it. I'd be shocked, I just don't see the mass on him that these other guys had.I'm not an expert on the subject, but is added body mass a side effect of every steroid? It's likely that different people's bodies respond differently to a steroid, just as they do to various medications.
