Might be a damn good point...

Default LaRussa
I have to agree with the opinion that LaRussa shouldn't be in. Looking the other way when you know your players are juiced should be punished, not rewarded. If a good portion of your wins happened because your players were cheating then it isn't much of an accomplishment.

Default No problem with Larussa
But of course I would elect Bonds, Clemens and several other juicers.
