Article on Mitchell investigation in ster*ids

And how appropriate that this is the unlucky 13th post in Rollie Fingers' Mustache! Here is an SI article about a possible major break for the Major League's George Mitchell-led investigation into ster*ids in the game.

Mitchell inquiry.

Man oh man, wouldn't it be fantastic to actually see the names that former New York Mets clubhouse help, Kirk Radomski, turned over to the investigators? That would undoubtedly be a sad time for the game, but would also corroborate people's suspicions about many certain ballplayers. I imagine something like those movie scenes of spinning, twirling newspapers, halting just in time to blare guilty parties' names across the banner.

You could easily compile a starting 9 of all the players Ted and I think have used steroids. I'll leave that lineup for another post.

Still, it's only a matter of time before someone starts besmirching Radomski's name and credibility in an attempt to discredit his tips. I really wonder how insightful Senator Mitchell's final report will be.
