    I wouldn't be surprised if he did; there was a helluva lot of PED's going around, unknown to many back then, (just ask Lyle Alzado, who admitted to using Steroids as far back as the very early 80s)......

    As well- Buhner's little brother, (Shawn); who was every bit as big, and somewhat strong and husky as Jay, (tho' lacking the brute muscles of jay), was a pitiful hitter, when he played here with the M's Org. He hit a few long balls in a Hitter Friendly ballpark, (where the wind gusts get up to 50mph often, to RF)............yet never lived up to his own potential, let alone his bros.........

    Unreal, Philly whacking the Jays at end 6th, 7-2. Cracktown losing to the Mets 3-1, they had Syndergard on the ropes in the 1st but a double play got him out of it.

    Happy to see the Phillies come up with a win against Toronto tonight. O's beat the Mets walk off style.
