Re: PED's Baseball and Lance Armstrong
Seems there is quite a bit omitted from this -
Tony Gwynn:
age 37 .372
age 38 .321
age 39 .338
age 40 .323
age 41 .324
And fat as he was, that should be impossible at those ages.
Paul Molitor:
age 36 .332
age 37 .341
age 38 .270
age 39 .341
age 40 .305
He was always injury prone, so suddenly playing the majority of games at a high level late in his career means you should question him too, correct?
Pete Rose:
age 37 .302
age 38 .331
age 39 average lower, had 64 RBIs
age 40 .331
I like Pete and not much to say about him that hasn't already been said.
Hank Aaron:
age 37 .327 47 HRs 118 RBIs
age 38 .265 34 HRs 77 RBIs
age 39 .301 40 HRs 96 RBIs
His 162 gm avg is 37 and 113
George Brett:
age 37 .329 batting title
career .305 hitter
Mike Schmidt:
age 36 MVP year, .290 37 HRs 119 RBIs
age 37 .293 35 HRs 113 RBIs
the last year and a half he was dealing with injuries
Stan Musial:
hit .330 at age 41
averaged about .345 during ages 36 and 37
His later numbers pale mostly because he put the bar so high.
Warren Spahn:
age 37 22-11 3.07 era
age 38 21-15 2.96 era
age 39 21-10 3.50 era
age 40 21-13 3.02 era
age 41 18-14 3.04 era
age 42 23-7 2.60 era
Maybe just a freak of nature, but purely amazing numbers

Re: PED's Baseball and Lance Armstrong
It would probably be more on point to simply say that the Jeter comment was obviously unsubstantiated and flippant to put out there in the first place.

Re: PED's Baseball and Lance Armstrong
I'm definitely not ready to say I'm suspicios of Jeter. Guys stay in better shape in this era and Jeter loves the game enough to work at it. While I don't like the Yankees, I respect that.

Re: PED's Baseball and Lance Armstrong
Yes, it was funny as i had mentioned looking at players stats covering late 30s and early 40s. And last time I looked, that would include ages 36, 37, etc. And my stats include many very good years above those ages as well.
Nice job not including Spahn in your little paradigm...bravo!
