    A-Rod doesn't count on the list of stars? Manny Ramirez doesn't count (twice)? Nelson Cruz?

    He was in the Mets' system at that point.

    Eh, A-Rod and Manny were second offense guys from the steroid era.

    I haven't seen any unsupported accusations on this thread. Just a lot of speculation, mostly about guys who have already been busted. Why would I have a problem with that?

    Fart's bets:
    ---------------
    Robinson Cano
    Albert Pujols
    Chris Davis
    Edwin Encarnacion

    Pick two.

    So much for no unsupported accusations. Then again, it's fart boy, so there is no reason to take the post seriously.

    Davis doesn't have ties to south Florida, so I don't see him being involved in this case.

    You're the one pounding on your usual tin drum here.
    You're the kind of ass who would demand geologic evidence for an ancient catastrophic flood.
    I cited two guys whose power years came out of nowhere and another who can't stay on the field.

    Eh, what the hell. I'm bored enough to show everybody how wrong you are again.

    Whose power came out of nowhere? I'm guessing Davis is one of the two. Davis always had immense power. If you knew anything about him, you would know that. His issue was never power. It was making enough contact to stay in the lineup. He was only 26 years old when he started to put it together in 2012, so still very young. There is no evidence at all to support your bet about him. Just ignorance (or intentional trolling) on your part.

    Feel free to actually try to support your foolishness for once. You'll fail, but at least the attempt will be mildly amusing. Until then, I'll stick to poking holes in just the one.

    Don't flatter yourself. You couldn't debate a turnip.

    Yeah, Davis' power certainly didn't come out of nowhere. Showed it at every level of the minors and in the majors when Texas brought him up the first time. Power was never the problem. Hitting for average at the major-league level was.

    Encarnacion might fit into the "out of nowhere" category, I guess.

    Who is the guy who can't stay on the field? Pujols? He's only played under 147 games once, and that was last year.
