Tommy John vs Steroids?

This quote from 38-year old Arthur Rhodes scared me:

"I was frustrated last year," Rhodes said. "I had a good spring training but I just came up hurt. I just told myself in the offseason, 'Hey, you've got a new arm now, a new elbow. Just go out there and show them you can still pitch.' "

Sound familiar? Getting frustrated and hurt, then doing something to make your body "new" and revitalized in the tail-end of your career. The "fountain of youth" that Rhodes speaks of is Tommy John surgery-- not steroids.

Hmm...
