So Palmeiro could be planning a comeback

[state2013]

The ending to his career was bad enough. No need to make it worse.

Please don't, Raffy. I hate the way things ended for you, but this is only going to make it worse. There is 0% chance you can still play at the MLB level.

I really feel for the guy.....

The pain and embarrassment from a career that went from triumph to tragedy so swiftly really messed him up bad mentally. It is so obvious in his demeanor every time I have seen him in the media. Just a miserable, tormented, and frankly pitiful countenance.

This seems to me to be just a desperate attempt to escape the pain that just won't go away. If this is what he is bound to do then more power to him but unfortunately I think he is likely to just deepen his humiliation.

Stay home with the Ms's. What always haunts these guys is that supreme confidence that it takes to stand in on a 95mph fastball never goes away, while the eyes and hands are long gone.

The real article is on The Athletic. Requires a membership, which I highly recommend. Get someone to gift it to you for Christmas.

God, this story is being picked up everywhere. I hope it's BS. This is beyond delusional. Even if by some miracle he could compete, no team has any incentive to deal with the backlash.

He had a wonderful career. He likely cheated some, just like a ton of guys, he made a gajillion dollars and seems to have a nice family. Accept it. It's a WAAAYYYYY better life than most get to live.

Giants sucked *** last year at the plate. Hope they invite Raffy to Spring Training.

I don't think he will find anyone willing to give him a shot.


Come back home, Raffy. Help Coach Can drum up money for the program and wow potential recruits.

I'd like to see him get back into baseball in some form. Whether you believe him of not, he's paid a steep price.

Hey, Stanozolol Boy, nobody wants to watch you disintegrate even further into your self-created pit of misery.

This has to be a promotional stunt to get his name out there for something. No way in hell he could play even mid minor leagues.
