I find it hard to believe, how absurd it is, that the soon to be released Mitchell report containing the names of 11 current free agents is being held while deals, some long term multi-million dollar contracts, are being discussed and signed.

Is a player who is now or has been useing PED's, worth the same or more money in the future, without them? :crazy:

How would you react to signing a big contract with a high dollar player to your team only to find out later that he had been on Mitchells list?

I find this absurd! :banghead:

i wonder if theyll put stipulations in the contracts that are getting signed now, saying the contract will be void if the player is proved to haven taken the fun stuff. would that be legal?

Excellent idea, not sure about the legality, seems to me they must do something.

I don't believe roids and growth have the ability to make a ballplayer but they may be able to help keep a good player on the field or give an edge on another guy.

Plus, if these free agents get hit with 50 games, they face what, the next time, if they need to use, and are caught?
