yea i read that joke of an article before. if he was on roids he wouldnt of been out so long with each injury since the players that have used them did it to help come back faster from injuries. yes there are some who did it just to get more power. he body just broke down from age and not really taking care of himself. its been said he barely worked out and rarely stretched like people said in the comments. he gave 100% every game when he was younger and his body paid for it. he laid out for everything, crashed into walls, etc. he had the fastest swing in baseball and always had power with his slender body. now he is getting fatter like most dudes do when they get older and its cause he doesnt work out. if his legs were still 100% he would still be hitting plenty of home runs. the power doesnt come from your upperbody for home runs. and being big doesnt mean you can hit for power. ive played against plenty of big kids that cant hit for power if their life depended on it. and your comment on jeter is ridiculous. jeter has brute strength. he just isnt a home run hitter, he is a gap hitter. im a pretty big guy and i dont hit for homeruns, im a gap hitter which in my opinion is more effective then trying to hit home runs every atbat.
