In the hours leading up to the release of the Mitchell Report, an e-mail listing the players about to be named was dropping into in-boxes around the country. It was a fake. I suspected as much when I saw the name of Rich Garces, a rotund former Red Sox reliever whose performance enhancer of choice was probably nacho cheese. But WNBC in New York ran the list on its web site. Worse, they ...

T-minus one hour to The Mitchell Report 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 Inte A-Rod re-signs with the Yankees for $275 million First A-Rod tries to upstage the World ...

Tis the season for lists.  Usually they're shopping lists. Not today. George Mitchell came out with his performance-enhancing hit list on Thursday and the baseball world may never be the same.  Here's a link to the players and how or why they were named in the report.  In all, 89 current and former players were revealed. The names ranged from superstars to mediocre ...

After taking some time to sift through the enormous amount of data in the Mitchell Report, I wanted to weigh in on it from a Mets fan's perspective and also from a baseball fan's point of view. From what I could see after sorting through the list of players, I was happy to find that there were no current Mets. (Whew) Learning that Paul Lo Duca was named in the report was a real ...

Herewith the entire list, in alphabetical order, of the 89 players named in the Mitchell Report ( PDF ): Manny Alexander Chad Allen Rick Ankiel David Bell Mark Bell Gary Bennett Marvin Bernard Larry Bigbie Barry Bonds Ricky Bones Kevin Brown Paul Byrd Alex Cabrera Jose Canseco Ken Caminiti Mike Carreon Jason Christiansen Howie Clark Roger Clemens Paxton Crawford Jack ...

The report issued by former US Senator George Mitchell and his Commission included the name of seventy-six current and former major league ballplayers who are alleged to have procured and used illegal performance-enhancing substances, including Roger Clemens, Mo Vaughn and several other former Red Sox players. Among the other Red Sox players who were named in the report were the man who blew ...

Using the Find function in Adobe Acrobat, I searched for each name in the early morning list that sped through the internet. Of the 74 named players on the list, 55.4% were named in the report. How this list was complied before being leaked to WNBC.com is not known right now. However, the spelling mistakes could be a result of a rushed effort to copy them and send it out as quickly as ...

Heroes and knaves. All-Stars and also-rans. The Mitchell report named names and pointed enough fingers at just about everyone in baseball when laying blame for the steroid cloud that has hung over the game for more than a decade now. The list everyone was waiting for included guys who threw the ball and guys who sent it back the other way...a long way. It also included players who will be ...

I haven't finished reading all 409 pages or anything, but I did notice that Will posted a complete list of all the players named in the report over at Deadspin, so I'm just going to steal that list and post it here for you. All the players listed in the section VIII. B.: "Information Regarding Purchases or Use of Performance Enhancing Substances by Players in Major League Baseball" (section 3 is

Here's the full Mitchell Investigation Report. It's 409 pages so I clearly haven't read through it all, but below is the list in order of which the names are presented starting on page 149. This is by no means the definitive list, Sammy Sosa or Mark McGwire isn't on it after all, but a great start for baseball's effort to clean up the game. Also a great day for fans, answering just a few ...

Here’s the list of the players named in the Mitchell report everyone was waiting breathlessly for… I’m happy to see Albert Pujols is NOT on the list, as the “leaked list” initially indicated: Adam Piatt Adam Riggs Andy Pettitte Bart Miadich Brendan Donnelly Brian Roberts Chad Allen Chris Donnels Chuck Knoblauch Cody McKay David Justice David Segui ...

I just finished reading through the Mitchell Report (some damning information regarding Clemens in there, wow) and put together a comprehensive list of players named in the report. Some of the more prominent and/or surprising players mentioned in the report are presented in boldface. Barry Bonds Sammy Sosa Raphael Palmeiro Mark McGwire Gary Sheffield ...

So remember that Internet list that I linked to earlier today? Turns it is was about 50 percent garbage. The Mitchell Report is out, and here's the actual list of players named. I'll post more later...

Roger Clemens and Andy Pettitte headed a list of 16 current and former Yankee players who were named as potential users of performance-enhancing drugs in the Mitchell Report. In addition, Brian McNamee, the team's assistant strength and conditioning coach in 2000 and 2001, cooperated with Mitchell and gave great details into Clemens' alleged steroids use. According to the report, McNamee ...

NOTE: A leaked list of names was published prior, which had a number of players that are not part of the Mitchell Report. This list below is derived directly from the Mitchell Report. ( Read the Mitchell Report here )  DISCLAIMER: Based upon an initial search (and I am still combing the document), here is the list of named players (MORE MAY BE ADDED SHORTLY AS THEY ARE FOUND - ...

Read it here . It's over 400 pages, so you may want to make a cup of tea first. A quick scan doesn't reveal any nice clean list or appendix of named of players, so we're going to have to, you know, actually read the thing to get the names. I'm sure someone will have it up soon enough. The names themselves don't interest me nearly as much as the entirety of the narrative. People have been ...

NBC has named the following players as being on the Mitchell Report (those bolded playedfor the Yankees at one time): Brady Anderson, Manny Alexander, Rick Ankiel, Jeff Bagwell, Barry Bonds, Aaron Boone , Rafael Betancourt, Bret Boone, Milton Bradley, David Bell, Dante Bichette, Albert Belle, Paul Byrd, Wil Cordero, Ken Caminiti, Mike Cameron, Ramon Castro, Jose and Ozzie Canseco, Roger ...

UPDATE: As noted above, this list was complete and total crap. The Mitchell Report may end up being 300 pages of reprimand for both the league and the players' association, but 95% of the attention paid to the document will focus on one thing: the list of players named.   Deadspin, among other places , has posted a preliminary maybe-this-is-it-maybe-it's-not list. The only three ...

The following list of players was compiled by a person who is closely connected to MLB. I received the list from a trusted friend who has access to a lot of news sources and vouches for its accuracy. Again, this is by no means the official final list of players, but I feel it has a lot of legitimacy. Brady Anderson Manny Alexander Rick Ankiel ...
