Steroids
Word is MLB is going to announce that a MAJOR player has tested positive for steroids. Look for the announcement over the next couple days. MLB didn't want to announce it on Friday, and ruin Hall of Fame weekend. Who is it? Larry Walker? Thome? cough Sosa cough?
Update 8/1 4PM: It's Palmeiro! Legacy tainted. Does this keep him out of the Hall? I'm not sure, but some voters won't be happy. I wouldn't vote McGwire or Sosa in, so why vote for Palmeiro? I remember hearing back in April(?) that MLB was sitting on a name of someone big, who tested positive for steroids. Were they keeping it quiet until after Palmeiro had his 3000 hit?
