Players react to Hall of Fame snub on Twitter

I took PEDs and I'm not proud of it..but people that think you can take a shot or a pill and play like the legends on that ballot need help.

Though he was the only one to broadcast his feelings in Comic Sans, Roger Clemens wasn't the only ballplayer to use Twitter after no players were elected to the Hall of Fame on Wednesday. Many past and present players made their voices heard with most saying the BBWAA results were "a joke."

Take a look:

38.8? Cool number. Surreal to even be having this conversation. Sad to see Murphy not in, Character should/does matter. #3Dalemurphy

I don't know much about the numbers of Biggio and Piazza... Don't think Sosa and McGwire did enough.. But Bonds and Clemens had #s and more — Jason Kipnis (@TheJK_Kid) January 9, 2013

Congrats 2 the writers 4 confirming the HOF voting process has become a complete joke. Biggio=3,060 hits! Out of all, he deserved in!

The Hall of Fame voting was a joke! The baseball writers got it wrong. Now they are going to keep guys out that they THINK did steroids. — frank catalanotto (@fcat27) January 9, 2013

Whats even more of a joke than PED users being on the HOF ballot is the MLB drug policy 50 game susp for the 1st pos test #slaponthewrist
