Can't say I agree with The Hammer on this:

"The Commissioner has done a great job," he said. "There's nothing else he can do out there. I think he's slowly trying to clean the game up, and I think he has done a tremendous job in trying to make good on that. Unfortunately, when he took over, it was so far out of hand. Now, you have to catch up and try to figure out what's the best system and what's the best way to clean the game up quickly."

I think the Commissioner has done a tremendous job of making sure that NOTHING threatens the money machine known as Major League Baseball, and has sold his soul and the integrity of the game in doing so. I still recommend "Juicing the Game" by Howard Bryant (written about 4-5 years ago) to anyone that wants to understand the sordid steroid history of MLB and the complicit activity of all involved.

<Hank Aaron Wants 2003 'Steroids' List Released>

I agree with him. Get it out there. Right now there are about 30 lawyers that have the list...the leaks will continue. Just tell the players ..."sorry guys...we lied, we're cutting the list loose"....they'll get over it.
