Im surprised that a lot of (apparent) baseball fans haven't read Jose's book.
He didn't really name names (okay, he did, but it wasn't a list or anything), he just kinda said that almost everyone does it. The only people he really made big note of was the people he personally helped or injected - Palmeiro being one of them. One of the people he specifically noted that DID NOT do steroids was Derek Jeter. There was mention of A-Rod, but I forget what he said. Jose was pretty indirect about most specific players, but he said as a whole, most players used 'roids.
My question is, how many of you would have said Raffy had the allegations not been released just recently? I think I would have - had I not finished "Juiced" days before Palmeiro had been caught.
Jose is quoted as saying "The challenge is not finding a player who has used steroids, rather, finding one that HASN'T" ...
