[Vision2020] Mitchell report on steroid use in MLB - Scandalous!

[Bruce and Jean Livingston]

Hey, they totally busted Roger Clemens.  

Oh yeah, that was AFTER he left the Red Sox and resurrected his career on steroids with the Yankees.  

To get a feel for what steroids could do for you, you don't just need to look at Barry Bonds increasing hat size and home run numbers, look at Clemens.  He won 192 games for the Red Sox from 1984-1996, while losing 111.  But his last four years with the Red Sox as his body gave out, 1993-96, he won 11, 9, 10 and 10, while losing 14, 7, 5 and 13.  He was basically a .500 pitcher for those four years at 40-39.  He goes to Toronto and is immediately 21-7, and then with the Yanks is 20-6, 14-10, 13-8, 20-3, 13-6, 17-9, followed by 18-4 in Houston in 2004, 13-8, and 7-6, before returning to the Yanks and going 7-6 this year.  

Based on the reports of his extensive "juicing" with the Yankees and what he did his last four years w/ the Red Sox before discovering the juice, it would appear to me that the last decade of his statistics are subject to extreme discounting by the Hall of Fame voters.

> The Mitchell report, which reported widespread used of steroids in Major League Baseball, was released today and it is scandalous.  George Mitchell is a director for the Boston Red Sox and not one marquee player from the Sox was listed in the report and yet there are many big name Yankee players listed.  There should be an investigation into this discrepancy.
