So today former Senator George Mitchell let loose with a stack of papers containing names of players who were accused of taking steroids. Some former Phillies that made the list include Lenny Dykstra, Jason Grimsley, Paul Byrd, Jeremy Giambi, Benito Santiago, and David Bell. Interesting list there, huh?
But here's a more interesting list for you... Former Phillies players who were NOT on today's 'Roid Roster:
-Kim Batiste
-Bake McBride
-Rod Booker
-Del Unser
-Granny Hamner
-Randy Lerch
-Pep Deininger
-John Titus
-Nick Punto
Now this is not to say that none of these players ever took liquid muscles, particularly that John Titus who led the 1909 Philadelphia Phillies in home runs with 3. Yep, he was the hammer on that group of Phightins'. But the fact is that nobody has indicted any of these players as of yet, so hopefully they will stay on the clean list, so give 'em a round of applause for staying of "the clear" and other questionable substances. However, if anything should change, I'll be the first to break it to you.
Keep clean, Philly.
