You are not allowed to suggest that Prior is/was a steriod user. Last night when this story of Prior being non-tendered broke I brought up the fact that Prior may be on the Mitchell Report. It really doesn't matter to me one way or the other, but I think the Cubs as an organization frown on bad PR. Which may or may not have contributed to the non-tendering decision. Then why re-sign Wood? Because Woody would work with Hendry on the price tag. I'm not saying the Mitchell Report was the #1 reason for nontendering Prior. I'm saying it could have been one of several reasons. I don't think it was a deciding factor, but maybe a contributing factor. Ding, Ding, Ding.
