Have never heard a whiff about him cheating. None. And other than putting on weight with age his hat size is the same. And unlike Bonds hitting 70 home runs at age 40ish, this guy went right down the tubes with age....like us all.

LOL Thats true.

Of course right during the teeth of the steroid era in 2005 he had a pretty impressive comeback year at age 35. Perhaps he took doses to get healthy a la Andy petitte? I am not saying that he did. But seriously we have zero clue.

Exactly, like people who claim Jeter was clean when he obviously juiced in 99 when his slugging % jumped 71 points over any other point in his career. We might as well just all face the reality that it was the culture of the game at that time and to keep up with the cheaters even the good guys had to cheat.

If everybody cheats is it still considered cheating?

Jeter found out shrinking his nuts was gonna hurt his off the field game so he quit?

No, he signed a 10 year, $189 million contract and realized it wasn't worth it. Or he just switched to HGH.

You got proof right? You know, like a doctor, a friend or a teammate. I've never heard anybody say anything about him.

Wow. Don't you feel old?

Best of luck to Jr. The trip to cincy might not have been the wisest career move but still a fine 22 years
