I remember Palmeiro with the Cubs in the late-'80's. No way he was a power hitter. He was more of a Mark Grace without a glove...and the Cubs already had Mark Grace. So they dealt Palmeiro and he never hit more than 14 home runs in any of his first five seasons. He had two nice season in 1991 and 1992. His home runs surged forward starting in 1993...which coincided with Jose Canseco's arrival in Texas.
He tested positive for stanozolol, an anabolic steroid that can be taken orally or injected. Winstrol is the brand name, you don't buy this off the shelf at GNC, and it isn't part of the ingredients in ANY dietary supplment you'll buy at the store. It's a controlled substance. It's the kind of anabolic steroid, like Dianabol or deca-Durabolin, that the bodybuilders and weightlifters (and later the football players) discovered in the 1950's and 1960's and were taking specifically to build muscle and gain strength at an accelerated rate.
Unless he's a burn victim, or suffered some sort of tissue loss that required prescription steroids to accelerate the creation of new tissue in the body, he'll be hard-pressed to provide an explanation that has anything to do with anything BUT the use of anabolic steroids as a perfomance enhancing drug.

In my opinion, he did one of two things: 1.Lied in front of Congress and took the steriods on his own 2.Someone "slipped him a preformance enhancing drug and told the truth in front of Congress. Numero uno sounds more credible to me.
