What about football? Can you imagine a 1950s-vintage 240 pound lineman playing in the NFL today? Should we toss out all recent football records because the players are larger now?
Palmiero will probably end up with around 600 homers and over 3000 hits. I don't think there's any doubt of him becoming a HOFer. I agree that 500 HRs shouldn't make someone automatic, not only due to steroids; smaller ballparks, expansion, the livelier ball etc. contribute as much or more to...
I'm glad things are going so well in this country that our lawmakers consider the use of steroids by baseball players an important national issue. I'd prefer that he introduce legislation to get rid of the DH and inter-league play.
