Online betting players who bet horses can sympathize with baseball betting fans, as you don’t know who has taken steroids and who hasn’t - which throws all of the records out of the window, or at least puts them on the ledge. Here is a look at the top five players who have yet to be accused of PED usage, and if these guys are found to be steroid users, I doubt I’ll ever watch baseball again.

Albert Pujols

It’s only a matter of time before people start trying to bring down Pujols, who has averaged just over 41 homers a year in the first eight seasons of his career, and this season, he’s on pace to shatter his season highs with 30 dingers and 77 RBIs in the first half of the year. If it wasn’t for Pujols, St. Louis’ offshore sportsbook odds would be down the tubes. Pujols has been adamant that he hasn’t used steroids, and he’s very believable.

Ken Griffey Jr.

“Junior” is fifth on the all-time home-run list with 621, and with the amount of injuries he’s suffered in his career, it would be difficult to fathom that he has been on the juice. He’s obviously not the same power hitter, but he still has arguably the sweetest swing in the big leagues, and he’s on pace to hit 24 homers in 2009, his 20^th season in the majors. His Mariners aren’t a favorite of those who make sports picks, but Griffey is respected all around the league and by anyone who knows baseball.

Jim Thome

Thome is 13^th on the home-run list as the 38-year-old slugger is in the midst of his 18^th MLB campaign. He is on pace for another 30-homer season, which would be his 13^th, and he crushed a career-high 52 in 2002, but was beaten out for the MVP award by Miguel Tejada, who (surprise, surprise), used steroids. Give him the award, Bud Selig.

Cal Ripken Jr.

It would have been easy for Ripken to get on the steroid train to prolong his career, in which he played 2,632 straight games for Baltimore, but a man of Ripken’s morals wouldn’t allow him to do so. Ripken was never really a power hitter, but he did hit 34 homers in 1991, and hit .340 in 1999, which was two seasons before he retired. The Orioles’ current baseball lines would probably get a boost (pardon the pun) from handicapping software if he put his uniform on tomorrow.

Chipper Jones

Online betting players forget that Jones hit 45 homers in 1999, when he won the National League’s MVP award, and if he reaches 20 dingers in 2009, it’ll be his 15^th consecutive season with 20 homers or more. Those numbers are just outlandish. He also spoke out about Alex Rodriguez just before he came out with his steroid usage, and you would think that a player on the juice wouldn’t throw another one under the bus like that. However, he’s still a player that anyone would love on their team at 37 years old, and he’s a major cause behind Atlanta’s baseball odds this year.
