Users Everywhere

The Mitchell investigation is reportedly going to be producing a list of 60-80 current and former players that were found to have used steroids or HGH. This is my list (which includes guys who will never be "caught" which I can do since I have no editor or affiliation of any kind).

1. Manny Alexander (IF)- Police found steroids and syringes in his car which was being driven by the team bat boy.
2. Carlos Almanzar (P)- Suspended by MLB.
3. Wilson Alvarez (SP)- Canseco says he injected the chubby southpaw.
4. Rick Ankiel (SP/OF)- Received HGH- use not proven.
5. David Bell (3B)- Says HGH was for medical condition.
6. Marvin Bernard(OF)- Named in BALCO investigation,
7. Rafael Betancourt (RP)-Suspended by MLB. Denies use.
8. Barry Bonds (OF)- Knowingly or not, the photos and the numbers don't lie.
9. Bret Boone (2B)- Canseco says it was obvious. The numbers certainly back that up.
10. Paul Byrd (SP)- Odd timing having it leaked on the night of his biggest career start. Byrd claims it was medicinal HGH (like Ricky Williams' marijuana).
11. Ken Caminiti (3B)- Former MVP and admitted user, Caminiti has since passed away.
12. Jose Canseco(OF)- Who knew he would be a whistle blower?
13. Ozzie Canseco (OF)- Apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Jose says Ozzie was a user too.
14. Paxton Crawford (SP)- Admitted use to ESPN.
15. Lenny Dykstra (OF)- Named by former business partner.
16. Bobby Estellela (C)- Admitted use during BALCO testimony.
17. Chuck Finley (SP)- Ex-wife said she saw him inject himself.
18. Ryan Franklin (SP/RP)- Caught by MLB, blamed it on a flaw in the system.
19. Jason Giambi (1B)- He can't actually say the words, but he pretty much admitted it.
20. Jeremy Giambi (1B)- Admitted use during BALCO hearing.
21. Jay Gibbons (OF)- Caught, suspended and not appealing.
22. Troy Glaus (3B)- Named by Sports Illustrated.
23. Juan Gonzalez (OF)- Former Canseco teammate. They once discovered a bag belonging to him with siringes and needles
24. Jason Grimsley (RP)- Mediocre reliever, mediocre snitch.
25. Jose Guillen (OF)- Signed 2 yr., 24 mill$ contract the day before he got suspended. He is appealing.
26. Jerry Hairston (IF)- Named by Sports Illustrated.
27. Felix Heredia (RP)- Suspended by MLB.
28. Dave Hollins (3B)- Named by former bodybuilder.
29. Darren Holmes- Says HGH was unsolicited and denies use.
30. Tom House (P)- Admitted use while playing in the 70s.
31. Yusaku Iriki - Suspended by MLB.
32. Ryan Jorgenson- Suspended by MLB.
33. Wally Joyner (1B)- Former Padre admits trying it for two weeks and then stopping.
34. Matt Lawton (OF)- Caught, suspended and admitted he did it.
35. Jim Leyritz (C)- Used HGH to recover from injury.
36. Dave Martinez- Another former player named by Canseco.
37. Gary Matthews Jr (OF)- Named by the Albany (NY) DA.
38. Mark McGwire (1B)- Andro proponent has disappeared. No proof, just allegations.
39. Agustin Montero- Suspended by MLB.
40. Mike Morse (SS)- Caught, suspended & admitted use.
41. Guillermo Mota (RP)- Caught, suspended and rewarded with a two year contract by the Mets.
42. Rafael Palmeiro (1B/OF)- Caught & suspended, but the former Viagra spokesman denies using performance enhancing drugs.
43. Neifi Perez (SS)- Caught not once, but twice.
44. Jorge Piedra (P)- Suspended by MLB.
45. Ricardo Rincon (RP)- Caught, suspended.
46. Armando Rios (SP)- Admitted during Balco grand jury hearings.
47. Brian Roberts (2B)- Named as part of the Grimsley investigation.
48. John Rocker (SP)- Admitted using over the counter HGH.
49. Pudge Rodriguez (C)- Named by Canseco. Just a hunch that he will be on Mitchell's list.
50. Juan Salas- Suspended by MLB.
51. Alex Sanchez (OF)- Caught & suspended.
52. Benito Santiago (C)- Another BALCO grand jury admission.
53. Tony Saunders (SP)- Most often remembered for breaking his arm throwing a pitch, Canseco named him too.
54. Scott Schoenweis (RP)- Named by SI. Terrible with or without performance enhancers.
55. David Segui (1B)- Use was legal and he has appeared on ESPN to defend said use.
56. Dan Serafini- Suspended by MLB.
57. Gary Sheffield (OF)- Bonds' former friend "unknowingly" used the cream and the clear.
58. Termell Sledge (OF)- Tested positive before 04 Olympics.
59. Sammy Sosa (OF)- Former teammate Turk Wendell says it was obvious and I agree. No proof though.
60. Jamal Strong- Suspended by MLB.
61. Miguel Tejada (SS)- Named by Canseco, Palmeiro and possibly Grimsley.
62. Derek Turnbow (RP)- Tested positive while trying to play for USA baseball.
63. Matt Williams (3B)- Claims it was for an ankle injury.
64. Ismael Valdez (RP)- Do you really care about Ismael Valdez? If you do, he reportedly got his perscription from the same dentist as Paul Byrd.
65. Randy Velarde(IF)- One of the original players named in the BALCO investigation.

Pure Speculation- these are some guys that I think used based on appearance, innuendo or results:
66. Brady Anderson -put up a monster year out of nowhere and then fell off the face of the earth.
67. Roger Cedeno- Was a speed demon with the Mets, then he got huge and was lousy afterwards.
68. Brad Fulmer- The biggest forearms I have ever seen.
69. Marcus Giles- Diminutive 2B lost a lot of muscle, power and stats after HGH was banned.
70. Frank Thomas- Doubt the Big Hurt got that big without a little help.

I'm sure there are others at all levels, but expect to see many of the names on the Mitchell list on this one. I know Pettitte and Clemens came up in the Grimsley investigation, but I think he said that they didn't use.
