I'll give you a moment to look at that, it's the official list of people mentioned in the Mitchell Report on steroids in baseball.
In addition to Barry Bonds for the Giants. A's fans got hit with Jack Cust, and Red Sox suffered only the recently departed Eric Gagne. Roger Clemens also joins the list of "old timers who apparently got the little kick they needed to come back." Both of those names make sense--Cust a perennial minor leaguer who needed just a little oomph to make the show, and Gagz a former great who needed to regain his old form.
It will be interesting to see how this develops, but George Mitchell emphasized in his press conference that he thinks players should not be punished for past crimes. Baseball needs to look to the future, and if we keep ourselves in the past, we will never move forward.
I'm amidst studying for my last two finals, so I apologize for the brief entry. I will respond to any and all comments though.
