Loaded Seattle lineup, Loaded Texas Lineup, Loaded Yankees Lineup... go figure! I don't want to hate on Arod, cause its quite the accomplishment, but many other players could have done the same thing in those lineups.....

A-Rod is now the ONLY player in MLB history to have 14 seasons of 100+ RBI's

ARod is 3-1/2 times the player Mickey Mantle was!

(Mantle only had 4 out of 18 seasons w/ 100+ RBI)

He's one of the biggest reasons those lineups would be considered 'loaded' though.

And it's a shame that he had to add a miniscule amount of production by the use of PED's and forever tarnish his name.

The fact that Mantle had only four 100 RBI seasons always amazed me. Especially when Danny Tartabull, Bernie Williams, and Dante Bichette each had five such seasons.

Agreed, fortunately it's becoming more and more widely accepted as a 'baseball' issue, and not any single player issue. It's only a matter of time before PED usage will be a insignificant blurb in baseball lore like greenies in the 70's or cocaine in the 20's, ect... Well, except for thoes who made a mockery of themselvs in the public eye like Bonds, Clemens, Palmerio, ect.. There images will forever be tarnished by there on camera(off field) actions with regards to PED's.

I also heard on XM the other day that Ty Cobb once won a triple crown and led BOTH leagues with 9 HR'S!
