What are your thoughts re: the difference between Mickey corking his bat....or a pitcher using a little vasoline, a tack or sandpaper.....vs players use of PED's?

Well, you saw the results of corking the bat AND using PEDs.......600 homers.

Guess that is my point.... Will Sammy, Mac, Barry et. al. ever get into the HOF? They are all considered "cheaters". Assume this will all just blow over with Mickey....

BTW, love that first pic of Sammy....he was one of my favorites....

I would really like to know how authentic that Mickey bat is.
