T-minus 30 minutes to The Mitchell Report
yourfaceisasportsblog.com 12/13/2007 — The Mitchell Report is set to get dropped in one hour, and when it does BASEBALL WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!!! Unless the list mainly contains players that everyone pretty much knew were doing something. There is a list of names named floating around the Internet right now. I'm skeptical because Rich "El Gordo" Garces is on that list. No joke.
Mitchell Report Conclusions
hardballtimes.com 12/13/2007 — The Mitchell Report was released today, and everyone is all ga-ga about the players named on the list. Personally, I couldn't care less. I haven't read the entire report yet (it's over 400 pages!), but I do want to reiterate its conclusions. Here they are, copied directly out of the report:
Crappy Former Cubs Named In Mitchell Report
wrigleyville23.blogspot.com 12/13/2007 — Here is the Mitchell Report , in pdf. Lots of former Cubs: Kent Mercker (no wonder he got so angry at Chip and Steve), Todd Pratt, Jerry Hairston Jr., Gary Matthews Jr., Todd Hundley, Benito Santiago, Rondell White and Glenallen Hill. At least those are the ones that I saw, and they are good example of the bad to marginal players who used to stay in the league. (Or, as Sarge just said: "Well ...

Clemens Juiced Up? Who Cares!
imwritingsports.com 12/14/2007 —

Now with these nearly 90 players being named does this change their chances for induction?

Now It's The Players Turn
everyfacetofthegame.blogspot.com 12/18/2007 — The aftermath of the Mitchell Report has seen several phases. The initial was directed at the actual names named in the report. Next all eyes turned to the evidence behind the claims. Now all attention is on the actual players. Who is going to step up and admit to performance enhancing drug use? Who will fight the claims of the report?

The Nationals and their new catcher, Paul Lo Duca, are remaining quiet about the Mitchell Report even though Lo Duca is named as one of dozens of players who used performance enhancing drugs.

The Mitchell Report Hundreds upon hundreds of baseball players not named in the Mitchell report must be saying, "there but by the grace of God go I" this morning. It is foolish to think that this is a comprehensive report on all the players who used steroids or HGH. It is just the tip of the iceberg. That's what makes this attempt at clearing up the problem a bit of a sham in my eyes. Some ...

Rangers - 15 But Roger Clemens, for example, would count against the Blue Jays, Yankees, Astros and Red Sox, if I'm reading this correctly - as the top six here add up to 101, while only 86 players were named.
