    Andruw Jones on steroids in 2005?
    I had ARod to lead the league in homers that year at 10-1 odds, and somehow Andruw Jones hits 22 homers more in this year than the previous year. He goes from 29 to 51 home runs. A Rod finishes second with 48. Of course the books don't pay me, but I wonder will wagers affected by steroids ever be corrected in the future. I could use that money. Andruw Jones is only 32 yet has not played good an all star caliber year since 2006. He is finished. I am just frustrated.

    Wasn't ARoid on roids too that year? How are you going to prove to the book your guy wasn't doing roids that year?

        Yeah, my guys was on roids too. Two wrongs don't make a right. But Arod never had a near had a 22 home run increase in any one year. I don't know of many mid career guys who increase their home runs by that much ever.

          Andruw Jones career took a complete NOSEDIVE since then.

            Brady Anderson has Andruw Jones beat. Also check out Wade Boggs' 1987 home run total and tell me neither the ball nor Boggs had help.

              MLB looked away while all of this was going on. Brady is a textbook example of juiced up statistics.

                ARoid had 54 in 2007, 35 in 2008 and 30 in 2009. Do you see what happens when he doesn't use roids?

                    Brady Anderson may have been the worst one EVER! From 1992 to 2000, he hit 21, 13, 12, 16, 50!!, 18, 18, 24, 19

                    He was on some good shit in 1996 when he cranked 50 outta the park.
