Why is so easy for these guys to say that a doctor prescribed for an injury but they bought over 10k of drugs and of course never mentioned it until it got leaked.

 

Matt Williams, the Giants' star third baseman for 10 years, bought $11,600 worth of growth hormone, steroids and other drugs in 2002, when he was playing for the Arizona Diamondbacks, according to the records. In a phone interview Monday, Williams said a doctor advised him to try growth hormone to heal a serious ankle injury he suffered during spring training in 2002.

Are these the "big names" that Mitchell was going to publicly out?

 

If so, it's a big, fat "meh"

 

This is why the big names that are under suspicion will never be exonerated. Nobody will accept that steroid testing is legit until their own white whale is taken down.

Williams does have 8 letters in it.

 

I don't think this is it at all. I heard they are suppose to announce the names (McCarthyism galores) after the Winter Meetings. This way George Mitchell can tell the Sox who to sign and the other teams get stuck with the 25 to 50 game suspension guys.

Yeah, no kidding. I'm amazed at the amount of ire that the Times drew for pointing out the obvious conflicts of interest with Mitchell doing this investigation while maintaining his affiliation with the Red Sox.

I don't believe guys named in the Mitchell report will be subject to suspensions. It's basically about steroid use prior to the new rules, correct?

Probably, but teams will sign the artificial strength guys while Boston may not.
