It seems as the days go by Major League Baseball becomes even more of a mess. A-Rod admits that he used steroids and the numbers that he got as a Texas Ranger was because of that. He tells us he has not used them since, but they still stay with you for a certain amount of time so we really do not know how much of a difference it makes today. Roy Oswalt had a pretty good take when he came out and ripped A-Rod saying that he cost him money in a way. I kind of agree with him as when pitchers talk contract many times they look at what you have done and against some of the better players in the league. With A-Rod on the juice in a way I guess it could hurt him.
Does A-Rod have to give back his MVP trophy that he won? I mean it was won not by himself, but with added help. Another question is how long are we going to leave the records in that players earned on the juice. Is it fair to all the players who have come before them and earned them the fair way. I think it is time that baseball rethink the steroids issue and the records as well. In my opinion a player should have no right to any type of award or record if he admits to using steroids. It is just not fair to other players who have done it the right way.
Records were made to be broken, but done the right way. I just cannot agree with keeping records on the books for players who have cheated the game, fans, and baseball. I think it is time to wipe these records out or at least put an asiterik by it so peoploe can decide on their own what is best.
