By a guy who put on about 30 pounds this winter and couldn't hit anything last year. Go figure. Like one gutsy reporter already said, nothing has changed.

And I would be surprised if he didn't hit 40 more this season.

Well, most of us do want to see an honest game, or something as close to one as we can get.

Innocent until proven guilty. I thought that was our way. Trust me if there is an issue or suspicion with any player, they will be tested i'm sure.

In a court of law. Public opinion does not have to be so kind. They can test David WriHGHt every other day and he'll pass until a blood test is in place.

You very well could be right but in baseball steroids and PED's are king of the crucified and the fans wont forget it either.

Here's the thing about public opinion: it's kind of like the popular vote in a Presidential election. Nice to have and all that, but in the end, it doesn't affect anything. How often does a player get benched because 'the court of public opinion' went against him? The team needs him in the lineup, he plays. You can boo and jeer until your face turns purple, but he'll still be in the lineup.
