Reply With QuoteNo teams were ratted out. It was players ratting out other players. According to those players (taken all from the Mitchell report), the Yankees were the clear favorite in terms of players who broke the rules. I'm not saying the Yankees dynasty that was the late 90's is tarnished, but it's quite odd that the biggest names in the sport who got caught (outside of Barry Bonds) all happened to wear Yankee pinstripes at one time or another.
Giambi and Sheffield both 100% took steroids for years upon years, that's been known since the BALCO scandal nearly three years ago.
Roger Clemens, Jason Grimsley, Glenallen Hill, David Justice, Chuck Knoblauch, Denny Neagle, Andy Pettite, Mike Stanton, Ron Villone, Rondell White among others were also ratted out.
Pretty much 50-75% of the people implicated have Yankee ties. Again, not taking anything away from those teams, but there isn't a doubt in my mind that many higher-ups within the Yankee organization knew full well what their players were doing.
I can't wait until Roger Clemens is made into a complete and utter buffoon in a week.
How about those Yankees!

I always felt he did do it, but for the sake of the game I hope he doesn't.

The Yankees would be OK if Hank would just shut up, stay in the background, and let the baseball people make the decisions. Originally Posted by soxmuscle
