Dec. 27: Let the guessing begin

December

A federal appeals court ruled this afternoon government investigators are entitled to names and urine samples of nearly 100 players who tested positive in 2003. Undoubtedly, the names will soon be leaked to the media and it should be an interesting summer.

The samples were collected by MLB to ascertain the level of steroid use and were to remain confidential. However, the court rejected the agreement between MLB and the Players Association.

It is believed since these positive tests were prior to MLB’s substance abuse policy that there won’t be suspensions. In short, we’re not going to see 100 players suspended during the season.

John – I think this is promising news because the court rejected the agreement between MLB and the Players Association. Do players really believe that the MLB and the Players Associations rules supercede the laws of the country?

I bet both Albert Pujols and Mike Piazza are on that list.

To Gil …

I wouldn't be surprised with either. I'm waiting for a stunner. A guy you'd never suspect.

Timo Perez will be the stunner.

Seriously, I'm placing my bets on Curt Schilling.

Hopefully this all leads to a saner world where a guy goes out and pitches or hits and baseball is not WWF nor UFC.

Get rid of the bums erase the records for the past 15/20 years. Restore Babe, Aaron, et al to the record books and get rid of these pretenders.

I have doubts about hojo and company also.

I want anybody linked to steroids to have their records come with an asterisk. It sickens me to think Bonds could break Aaron's record. And, for McGwire to hug Maris' kids the night be broke the record knowing about steroids is sad.
