If it can be proven, Roberto needs to be in jail.

Hurts like hell to say that because in 1999 I saw the most complete ballplayer I have had the honor of watching in my 50 years of baseball watching. He did it all hit, hit for power, rbi, steal bases and played the most incredible defensive 2nd base( with another future HoF’er Omar Vizquel).

You know what’s funny, Roberto Alomar is the baseball writers pet. They constantly talk about he should be a shoe in for the hall of hame. Despite the fact he spit on an umpire, and didn’t tell his wife and others about his HIV status. His stats are good, bot not a sure thing at all, and throw in the fact that he’s a POS it should be at least 15 years before he gets in. Lots of good ball players not in with similar numbers. Ron Santo is a better player and he did it with severe diabetes.

And probably only got just a little help from steroids, along with every other player in my formerly favorite sport. To hell with all of them.
