| I'm sure this thread has been done before, but anyone know of any current
players that smoke??? The only two that I could think of are both retired,
Keith Hernandez and Jim Leyland.

Well, those are guys I've seen caught on camera smoking in the dugout.
I'm sure there are a few major league players that smoke, we just haven't seen
them. (I've seen a number of minor leaguers that smoke, for what that's worth.) >> Stay informed about: Players that smoke? |

I remember when Bill (Spaceman) Lee was fined for admitting in an interview
back in the 70's that he sprinkled pot on his pancakes at breakfastime.

I think that the players that do smoke now tend to hide it somewhat, to
avoid the criticism.
Not like the 30's and 40's, when players like Joe DiMaggio were in ads
extolling the pleasures and benefits of cigarette smoking.
