Rafael Palmeiro isn’t ready to give up his comeback attempt yet.
Even though no teams have shown much interest with full squads reporting to spring training next week, Palmeiro remains hopeful that a team will give him a chance to resume his playing career at age 53 and after a 13-year layoff.
“I’m still pursuing it. I haven’t changed my mind,” Palmeiro said on Friday. “I’m still working out and doing everything to be ready.”
Palmeiro said his agent has spoken with the Texas Rangers and Baltimore Orioles about the idea of a return.
