If they aren't, then how do you explain their sudden success? Howard was a fifth round selection in 2001 and Wright was a sandwiche pick in the same year!

Sudden sucess??? Lmao...ur tellin 5th round picks r incable of becoming superstars? Wright was praised when he came in 4 the mets and howard was last year's rookie of the year, where have u been? If ur earlier theory is correct then how was pujols a 13th round pick?O i guess hes on juice too is dat wat ur goin to tell me? Scouts arent perfect they dont always get it right as there is always plenty of first round flops. Steroids doesnt give bad players talent, it gives talented players an unfair advantedge in home-runs. Howard and Wright are talented get some real evidence before you make an accusation like that.

What sudden success? David Wright was a huge prospect the whole time. Howard always had power, he dropped to a fifth rounder because of other considerations. And if you watch David Wright hit, he doesn't do it with strength, (though he is strong) he does it with fundementals.

No, this is rediculus. Can't a player be good without him being accused of using steroids?! YES, a lot of players today are on steroids!!! BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO JUMP TO THE CONCLUSION THAT, JUST BECAUSE THESE GUY PRACTICE HARD AND ARE ABLE TO HIT BASEBALLS OUT OF THE STADIUM DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE JUICED!!!!!!!! Everyone just needs to accept that some players really are good, whether you like it or not. I don't know why you ask this question, maybe you wanted someone else to win the home run derby, so did I. But these guys are good and it's not fair that there should be any doubt surrounding this fact.

It is very sad that any ball player who has any kind of success in the majors these days is suspected (by some) of being on steroids. Anything is possible but I would say right now no.

i doubt it. ryan howard has always been a home run hitter even in the minor leagues, and david wright is just a great player. a bigger question is jim thome juicecd?

Do they look like it?
No.
Is it that unbelievable for someone to be tallented at baseball these days? Can't people be naturally gifted without being questioned for thier talent? It's a sad, synical world we live in, isn't it?

If they each drink Kool-aid and Sunny Delight before each game, then yes, I'd say they are juiced.
