Why is it that as a sports fan you just arbitrarily decide not to like someone? I never liked Jim Palmer. Don't know why, he is probably a great guy. He sure as heck was a great pitcher. Eight seasons with 20 wins or more, three Cy Youngs, 268 career wins, there is a lot to like about this guy. But for reasons only the baseball gods can explain, I never liked him and seriously considered painting him in the Jockey underwear he made so famous. I am glad I showed some maturity and instead chose this classic pose. He was truly a great pitcher and did a couple really unique things; he won a world series game in three different decades, and never gave up a grand slam.
