And you can look for that week of Santana trade rumors, now that my D'Backs have picked up Dan Haren. That opens the free-agent door on pitchers a bit. Even though Haren was traded, not signed, players are starting to move as teams in the same division as those making moves are trying to shore up their own rosters with corresponding moves. This will up the price for Santana if the Twins choose to move him.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>srriv345</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="http://wrongplanet.cachefly.net/modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Sat Dec 15, 2007 7:32 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Eh, from what I can tell this just adds more rumors and hearsay into the mix. We still don't know for sure who did or didn't do steroids. If Player X's name isn't in the Report, that doesn't necessarily mean he's clean. Just means his dealer and teammates didn't snitch. I'm not looking forward to the political grandstanding which is going to happen as a result of this. Frankly, I think MLB should be more concerned with implementing its steroid policy now than in trying to retroactively figure out what happened. The only thing this really affects is Hall of Fame voting. <br /> <br />Gah, I don't like the off-season very much. This Mitchell Report stuff is enough to make one beg for another week of Johan Santana trade speculation.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>duncansbass</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="http://wrongplanet.cachefly.net/modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Fri Dec 14, 2007 12:36 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: the mitchell report</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>richardbenson wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">alright what do you think about the mitchell report? i am so over barry bonds, i now think he did knowengly used steriods. and wasnt at all shocked that roger clemens name was on it. i hate that fool and hope he gets the same treatment barry is getting <br /></td> </tr></table><span class="postbody"> <br /> <br /><a href="http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=dw-clemenssteroidsearly121307&prov=yhoo&type=lgns" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=dw-clemenssteroidsearly121307&prov=yhoo&type=lgns</a> <br /> <br />Check the column.
