You forgot Frank Thomas

You also forgot Gary Sheffield.

Ok, I'll add Buff and Sheff.

Any help with this? Somebody else had to have seen this.

Surprised no Zoilo Versailles mentions.

You forgot Luis Gonzalez.

I wish I could select every name on that list about 50 times. But I'd have to say that Luis Gonzalez and Brady Anderson were probably the most obvious statistical anomalies of the bunch. While guys like Bonds, Sosa, McGwire, and Giambi were putting up big power numbers before the juice, Luis and Brady put up okay numbers, skyrocketed (I believe they both had 50 HR seasons), and then disappeared into obscurity again. 90s/early 00s baseball depresses me.

god there were so many of them. just search the old A's rosters. Brett Boone bothered me the most since it was so obvious, yet no one would say anything Mike Gallego was another one that bothered me. dude couldn't hit the ball out of the infield then puts on 30 lbs of muscle and becomes an everyday player.

Nomar was one of those guys like Alex Rodriguez where it didn't change his body type, so it wasn't obvious just by looking at him. Nomar's roiding became obvious once his body started breaking down. Red bursting crotch dots...

He looks 40 in this picture, and that's probably his rookie card. Hatchetman wrote:
