Back a few months ago, when José Canseco wrote in his book Juiced  that he helped folks like Rafael Palmeiro and Ivan “Pudge” Rodriguez take steroids, pretty much anyone who cared castigated him and called him a liar in just about any fashion of which they could think.
Looks like those folks now owe José an apology.
Today, the latest member of the 3,000 hit club, Palmeiro, got his ass busted for using steroids.
Former Ranger Rafael Palmeiro was suspended Monday for violating Major League Baseball’s steroid policy, two weeks after joining the exclusive 3,000-hit club and five months after denying he ever used steroids before a Congressional committee.
Palmeiro, now with the Baltimore Orioles, received a 10-game suspension, effective immediately. The Orioles will be in Arlington to play a three-game series with the Rangers this weekend.
The announcement sent shockwaves through baseball. Six players had previously been suspended for steroids, but none had Palmeiro’s stature.
In a 650-word statement read on a conference call, Palmeiro denied he ever knowingly took steroids.
“I am here to make it very clear that I have never intentionally used steroids,” Palmeiro said. “Never. Ever. Period.”
Uh huh.  Sure, Raffy.  Neither did Barry Bonds.  YeahRight™.
