7 0 All Jaydawg^1029 Mike Sweeney claims to have been offered the 'juice' by K.C. teammates in '99 1/14/06, 09:45am This is a surprising revelation, considering the fact that the Royals finished 32 games behind the Indians in 1999. Though, they did have a team average of .282 and a then franchise-record of 856 runs scored. But, they still couldn't compete with the Yankees and the big boys around the league. See what I mean when I state that the salary cap issue should become the next big hurdle to overcome in the game? Mike Sweeney is a fine player in his own right, but think about what would've happened if he accepted the juice from teammates. [Jaydawg from Tarzana/CA] Replies: 1708
