How will MLB handle this era in the future? What will it do to Hall of Fame eligibility?

I believe MLB should list any and all who tested positive and accept it as part of the game's history, just as they did with the Chicago Black Sox. It happened. Recognize it, and move on. A separate wing in Cooperstown for any who tested positive if necessary.

On another note, the Commish should definitely reconsider on Pete Rose's eligibility, especially in light of the steroid era. Put the betting aside for a minute and just look at the numbers and all time ranking in hits, etc. And he didn't juice....
