I tend to think of him more of a scumbag because of his finger wagging bold face lie

Now that's rich. Old man will throw his hip out trying to make it to 1st base

He'll probably win the Gold Glove for 1st basemen while in Single-A

guess I really don't care about him enough to know the details.

I think I have a ball signed by him...

He was Adrian Gonzalez before that was a thing. He was a candy assed me-first player who was clearly using something in the latter part of his career and thought shaking his finger at Congress would be enough to squelch the speculation


IT DIDN"T

While playing 28 games.

only reason he is thinking of it to reset the clock on his hof ballot eligibility......

 

[tducey]

A player I always liked. Doubt anything comes of this but you have to admire his ambition.

julio franco hit .227 at age 55 in indy ball.

6 for 27

I tell myself I can still hit the ball and I am just a tad slower now.
I turn 71 in 2 days, so my mind and my body are not in agreement on this.

You should start hitting the gym.... You'll have a starting position in no time!

As far as Palmerio goes give him a shot what do people have to lose?

I think a similar comment about Tim Tebow hasn't gotten quite as friendly a reaction.

true but baseball isn't the same as football... But it is weird no one has taken a shot at Tebow.. Though do we know if he even wants to play anymore?

All I read was that Tebow was taking the spot of some more deserving minor leaguer, whatever that means.
