Thomas doesn’t sugarcoat disdain for PEDs

“I wouldn’t say I feel bad for them,” Thomas told reporters Saturday at SoxFest. “I respected them on the field, but they chose this. They made their own decisions off the field and they have to live with it.

“These guys did put up some incredible numbers, but they are fake. Any time you look at the PED situation and Lance Armstrong, you look at stuff like that and it’s serious out there. I just thank God I’m blessed I did it the right way and have a good family base that made me outwork everyone else. That’s the only way I made it to the big leagues. I was never that blue chip prospect.”

Thomas is disappointed that no one was elected to the Hall this year but hopes that at least Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine will be elected with himin 2014.

“Like I said, I spent my whole career working my (rear) off, and hopefully I get what I deserve,” Thomas said.
