Question 2003 Marlins Juiced?

Look at some of the HR totals for some of the players on that team that season - then see how they did last year, once testing began. Did Pudge get them on the juice?

I've been going to games since August 8, 1973....and on August 22, 2004, finally, a foul ball came my way. I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller!

So how do you explain 1999-2000 or 2001-2002?

Doesn't matter.
I'm looking at guys like Lowell, Pudge, and Alex Gonzalez, 2003 vs. 2005. The numbers are shocking.

Am I missing something? 1999-2005

Lowell: 12 -> 22 -> 18 -> 24 -> 32 -> 27 -> 8

Pudge: 27 -> 25 -> 19 -> 19 -> 16 -> 19 -> 14

A Gon: 14 -> 7 -> 9 -> 2 -> 18 -> 23 -> 5

How do you explain Wade Boggs' 8 -> 24 -> 5 (1986-88?)

Davey Johnson's 5 -> 43 -> 15 (1972-74)

Bob Hamelin 24 -> 7 -> 9 (1994-96)
