Why isn't David Ortiz & Manny (being manny) in Mitchell's report?

Question

Is it because mitchell is biased?

Answer 1

they probably paid him off

Answer 2

First, Mitchell is not on the Red Sox board of directors. He is a consultant to the owners who has no voting rights, or any other rights pertaining to the organization or its operations. If you go through the names, you'll find more Mets listed than any other.

Second, the primary individual to roll over on players is from New York, so it's only logical that those players will show up more often. Also, Clemens, Pettitte and Knoblauch show up because a personal trainer for them was tied to Radomski, who was the primary supplier for the New York area.

Third, If anyone would take the time to read the report (and a few on here have), if there was one individual who comes across as a common tie to just about everyone listed, it's David Segui. Kind of like the six degrees of Kevin Bacon, you know. Much of the report can be traced back to his early involvement.

Answer 3

Very not uncomplicated to tell, because of the fact the data that got here out became based upon people who have been speaking to circumvent reformatory time. MLB fairly did not totally cooperate with the learn partly simply by hard work union. so a tactics they are harmless because of the fact of loss of evidence, yet in certainty that's in simple terms the tip of the ice burg and that is not uncomplicated to assert if the gamers knew HGH became one among those overall performance enhancer. whilst HGH first got here out countless human beings in contact interior the supplement industry that have been making use of and inspiring its use for the conventional individual, some have taken it till now each thing till they knew approximately its overall performance improving outcomes, yet that would not have excused human beings from taking it because of the fact it became positioned on the books as a banned substance in activities. i became somewhat greatly surprised on the style of Yankees and that some agencies had none, which made me ask your self besides. i became somewhat greatly surprised via Ortiz not being on the record, yet Ortiz became in no way small and continuously became presumed to have power; that is not comparable to he became small and grew to grow to be massive in one day. the unhappy area is we can't in any respect be attentive to who became legitimate and who wasn't. i might opt to think of that persons that have been great and did not make the record be credited for what they did with their organic skill, like Ken Griffey Jr. who became one individual who i could be greatly surprised if he took any overall performance enhancers, because of the fact he became good as an 19 12 months previous outfielder and not in any respect bulked as much as a great length.

Answer 4

Manny and Ortiz are two of the least likely candidates to be using steroids that I can think of.

First off, take ONE look at David Ortiz tell me you think he uses or used at any time steroids.

Manny just doesn't think that hard about his stats or anything for that matter to really want to go that route. I'm not saying he couldn't, but there's no way you're going to convince me that Ortiz has ever used.

The reason why their names are not on the list is because there was apparently no evidence to implicate them. They didn't leave the Redsox out of this investigation. Have you read anything besides the list of names implicated? Obviously not, because the Redsox organization is mentioned in quite a few places, and there are several past, and a few current players. Not to mention there are multiple mentions of Theo Epstein in the report knowing of the steroid use of Eric Gagne and others in relation to acquiring players for the Redsox.

So before you say anything else about bias in this report, why don't you read some of it first. Instead, you've merely chosen to throw away any credibility you have in regards to this topic.

Answer 5

They are not listed because George Mitchell didn't find any evidence on them.

As for being biased for the Red Sox, George Mitchell is a former Judge and Federal Prosecutor. He knows how to build a case and would not present evidence unless he could back it up.

With as much scrutiny as he would have on this report, he would not risk his reputation to cover up or hide any evidence on any player regardless of the team.

Both Brendon Donnelly and Eric Gagne were listed. They played for the Red Sox last year, albeit in minor relief roles. I would have rather had this report out this summer so we wouldn't have had to deal with Gagne's blowing as many games as he did.

Answer 6

ok all yannkee fan r gonna say yes just because half there team is on there. and no bcecause if u understand the mitchelle report i agree because he went around and asked BALCO he got checks and stuff so hes no bias

Answer 7

look the former met clubhouse attendant was the one that said the most names THATS why so many former mets nd yankees were named because the met clubhouse guy was based in Long Island nd the other guy was just clemens nd pettite. I hate people saying Mitchell is hiding Red Sox names (nd im a yankee fan nd red sox hatter) because most of them r former yankees. nd barely any Red Sox...the guy was a US Senator nd helped bring peace to Northern Ireland why would he risk his whole rep to save red sox players when they will one day be caught nd people whould know he covered it up...........If they caught a New England based supplier then they would find all of the red sox that did it

however I do agree they shoulda found an outside person but George Mitchell is credible

THERE R MANY MORE NAMES.......HOPEFULLY ONE DAY OTHER DEALERS FROM OTHER PLACES (LIKE NEW ENGLAND, THE SOUTH, ND LATIN AMERICA) WILL BE CAUGHT ND THEY SAY THE NAMES

Answer 8

My emotional side says yes, he's biased,
but my logical side says maybe they didn't test positive????
I think I'll listen to my emotional side.
Burn him at the stake!!!!
lol.
(I'm just kidding, don't report me, you wierdos)

Answer 9

Well this might maybe you happy 2 Yankees were on the list :[

Answer 10

First of all, I don't believe they juiced, but if they had, i doubt a minority owner is going to destroy his two power guys. Seeing that mitchell is a minority owner... yeah

Answer 11

Yes, he is biased. He knows that the Red Sox is where he gets his bread buttered. He is out to get the Yankees. The Report is a case of he said/she said.
