McGwire was never subject to testing. that;s why he didn;t test positive. Re Arod--Imho, this is a guy who is gonna hot 35 HRs without juice at age 40 after taking a year off from baseball. That's HOF proof any way you cut it.
Apparently, the residual benefits from steroid use lasts many, many years.
Eta: see e.g., Justin Gatlin.
I watched Pedro Day at Fenway yesterday on MLB Premium and the announcer had the temerity to introduce Ortiz as a "future hall of famer". I almost spit out my overly acidic chardonnay.

I could be persuaded on Sosa too. I looked back, and I had forgotten how many years he was good. My recollection was that it was 5-6. It was more like 10 seasons. And I've been pretty consistent that I'm generally inclusive when it comes to the HOF. I would have voted for most borderline candidates of the past 20 years.
