If not for a bad back Don Mattingly would have had a longer healthier career, and therefore, been a sure fire HOFer. Should guys who took steroids to stay on the field get in while guys who didn't get penalized?

Mattingly was a far superior player to McGwire.
I think many of his injuries were due to his steroid use.

So yeah, I think he could have continued to produce those numbers.

I actually think McGuire may have been a better player had he never taken steroids.
