Steroids


I'm sick and tired of hearing about how steroids have made offensive records illegitimate with no mention of the smaller strike zone tainting the records.  Steroids may have a lot less to do with it than you might think.  For example, take a look at Rich Aurilia's 2001 season.  That year he hit 37 home runs (previous high of 22), hit .324 (previous high of .281), had a .941 OPS (previous high of .783) and I could go on and on across the board and there is a dramatic jump in his numbers.  I've never heard anyone say "man, that Rich Aurilia is really juicing".  I think that is safe to say.  So why did Aurilia have a monster 2001 season unlike any other season he ever had?  The answer is because he was batting behind Barry Bonds in the lineup.  That year, Bonds had a .515 OBP!  Translation, he was always on base which forced pitchers to give Aurilia good pitches to hit or in other words made for a smaller strike zone for him.  The fact is Aurilia is a professional hitter and when you give a professional hitter a tiny strike zone he will kill you time and time again.

How many HRs would Aaron, Ruth and Mays have hit if they took steriods? When Bonds passes these guys how should I react?
