We had a great long thread on this subject the other day. I'll repeat what I said at the time . . . Even before the steroid story came to light, I often said that Palmeiro had one of the most bizarre careers I've ever seen. I don't think there's been a more inconsequential 500-HR, 3,000-hit player in the history of major league baseball.

At the chance of introducing vulgarity into this discussion I'm beginning to wonder if Palmeiro became a spokesman for Viagra because of, ahem, side effects from steroids.

No doubt.

Still, nothing beats Barry Bonds peaking in his late 30s -- unprecedented in the history of baseball. And not just peaking, but playing a brand of baseball that a 25 - 30 year old Bonds couldn't even dream of.
