And I guess because he goes from being decent to being a sub 2.00 ERA guy in 1996 when he joins the Marlins featuring Gary Sheffield in the year baseball blew up.

You could pretty much look at the entire Rangers roster during the Jose Canseco era and be pretty much right on the money. Other rangers of note... Raffy, Ivan Rodriguez, Juan Gonzales, Gabe Kapler, Big Cat, Ken Caminiti, Lance Nix, Gary Mathews Jr., John Wetteland, Jeff Zimmerman, Roberto Kelly, Hank Blalock, Kevin Elster, Dean Palmer, Lee Stevens

All speculation on my part of course.

I predict that only a minority of the players named in the Mitchell report will be power hitters. I think it will skew towards power pitchers and position players who rely on speed over power.

The Mitchell report apparently going to be released at 2pm tomorrow according to ESPN.com. I've read that its going to be very critical of Selig and the front offices of teams and since Selig will not be at Mitchell's press conference to announce the findings it seems like there's some truth to that.

A former New York Yankee strength trainer says information he supplied to the George Mitchell investigation regarding supplying Roger Clemens with steroids is included in the Mitchell report scheduled to be released later today, a source close to the trainer told ESPN The Magazine's Shaun Assael.

Brian McNamee, who worked for the Yankees and as a personal trainer for Clemens and Yankee teammates Andy Pettitte, also told investigators that on at least one occasion, Clemens was in possession of steroids from another supplier, the source said.

The source said McNamee told investigators her supplied Clemens with steroids while Clemens was witih the Yankees, and prior to Clemens joining the team.

Also, The Bergen (N.J.) Record, citing a baseball industry official, says "several" prominent Yankees will be named. The paper said the source spoke to a third party who had seen the final report.

"It's going to be a rough day in the Bronx," the paper quoted the source as saying.

That is probably because the entire current Marlins roster was still in diapers when the steroid issue first came into the public eye. Perhaps that is why they traded Cabrera, mmmmmm?

Yeah, I am sure that Selig will agree with everything in the report except for the part where they say he and the owners are partly to blame...

Does not surprise me much. Too bad about Pettite though. Of course, being a Yankee fan I detested Petitte after he left for Houston anyway.

I have tremendous respect for Mitchell. I have seen first hand exactly how hard of a worker he is, and he is also very diligent and thoughtful. If Selig wanted a whitewash, he definitely picked the wrong guy.

I would expect nothing less. Look back on his time in the Senate, and you'll see a guy who was universally respected by his colleagues. Plus, let's not forget that he's the one who finally brokered a real peace agreement in Northern Ireland. I know a lot of people are going to try and discredit the report, but they'll be trying to discredit the wrong person.

Not saying anything about him personally or about what he's done (I plead ignorance), but isn't it true that his "investigation" really was more about getting reports from people on what they had seen/heard? There were some stories about trainers/clubhouse guys who felt that they were being bullied to name names, so I'm questioning where there is any EVIDENCE of wrongdoing. Of course, I could be proven wrong when the report comes out. I just don't really understand how an investigative team with absolutely no subpoena power and no real legal ground to stand on can come up with solid evidence.

Not saying solid evidence is needed for people to believe what they want to believe...

The assumption from a lot of those that have been bashing the investigation since they announced it is that Mitchell is a lap dog for Selig and the sole pupose of this is to throw out a bit of info on steroid use in baseball in a one-sided manner to appease fans and congress.

I think anyone that actually has knows anything about Mitchell knows that couldn't be further from the truth. I had no doubt he would put out the best and fairest report he possibly could. Selig would have been an idiot to get someone that would do anything less since this report is going to be heavily scrutinized by fans, and most importantly congress.

What I've found ammusing is Mitchell refused to give the MLBPA an advanced copy of the report since they refused to cooperate in the investigation. The guy earned bonus points with me there.

I've seen an apparent list on a couple websites, (won't post it all), but yes, the Yanks and Sox do get several names of past and former players on the list. (Including Jason Varitek, which I really feel disappointed about).

Another assumption in the report was that since he works for the Red Sox he'd hold back names from that organization....

Agreed. Mitchell is an honest broker.

If they continue to distance themselves from the report, Selig and the owners will lose a lot of respect. Their reaction will be very telling.

Some of these names are mildly surprising to me, but I guess if I really think about it they make sense. Garciaparra probably with all his injuries. Johnny Damon is a HUGE disappointment to me if it is true. Probably the biggest disappointment on here though is Pujols. It seems to me that he is too young and talented to need performance enhancers. Maybe he took stuff to get through an injury. I dunno, but it goes to show that we can't trust any of these guys anymore. In addition, how do we really know what to believe anymore anyway? All I know is that Selig really screwed up this great game for many generations, past, present, and future.

Many of the owners have not reacted at all to any of this, so I seriously doubt they will say anything after the report comes out either. Selig is in a position where he is forced to react to it due to the nature of his job. Regardless of how he reacts to this, his legacy is etched in stone as an incompetent moron.

Here is hoping for more creativity when the players deny or give excuses for their PED use. The major ones (Did not know what I was taking, injuries, etc.) are played out.

God bless Frank Thomas and Ken Griffey Jr...the true baseball heroes of the 1990's...

Don't forget, Mitchell probably only had a few sources that squeeled, many players will be thanking their lucky stars tommorow...

Deadspin posted the list with a story, and then later updated the list with the following.

(UPDATE: A source inside baseball says this list is "not entirely accurate." Emphasis ours.)

When I saw Tejada had been traded I figured it was cause he was going to show up on the report.

Don't see any current Royals, but I'm not sure that's all that surprising. We're obviously not cheating well enough because we're not winning enough.

The Braves look to be pretty clean. Time for MLB to do the right thing and retroactively award us the last 3-5 World Series titles.

I thought pretty much the same thing when I saw Mark Prior's name on that list, since the Cubs decided last night not to offer him a contract for next year....

Also, disappointed and actually pretty surprised to see Kerry Wood's name show up (although it makes sense w/ all the injuries I guess..)

I bet Rocker did enough roids to cover the rest of the roster.

At least now I know that if I want to hate blacks and gays, I just need to do lots of roids.
