You mean Pettitte and Giambi? Because those are the only ones on the team mentioned in the Mitchell report.

Really, I could have sworn that the Yankees had more than that on the report.

In case you didnt know these name were on the list, these infractions occurred while wearing pin stripes.

Kevin Brown, Ricky Bones, Roger Clemons, Jose Canseco, Jason Grimsley, Darren Thomas, David Justice, Chuck Knoblauch, Hal Morris and Randy Velarde....

The lone Brave was

Todd Pratt...

When the Yankees were in their prime, they were doing it with a 3rd of their current payroll. They also beat the Braves twice in the series, once when the Braves had David Justice who was named in the Mitchell report.

I'd like to think you know what you're talking about, but it's obvious you don't.

To bad that Justice was on the Mitchell report for his time with the beloved Bronx juicers....Just so happens I printed a copy off at my desk the other day...

Kevin Brown was with the Dodgers when he juiced, Jose Canseco was on the A's when he juiced, Grimsley was on the D-Backs (in case you forgot he was the target of a federal investigation 3 years ago, while on Arizona), Ricky who? Darren who? Hal who?, and I believe Velarde was on the MR after the Yankees released him.

On the current team, for who this thread was started are................Andy and Jason.

I guess I must have printed off a bad copy of the Mitchell report then, because you would obviously know more. I wonder why it says in the actual report that there were more than a dozen players who allegedly doped while wearing pin stripes.

That report is a lie! No one is smarter you.

Just because they played for the Yanks, doesn't mean they were automatically on steriods with them since they were on the MR. I know I opened that can of worms but the more you do it the more stupid it sounds.

Canseco huh?

"He was claimed off waivers by the New York Yankees down the stretch in 2000, but was not a factor at all in the postseason, making only a token appearance in one game of the World Series against the New York Mets."

Claimed off waivers but only played one game in the postseason. Wow, the Yankees should be crucified for harboring steriods users.

As you said, you opened the can of worms....Now lets close it and move on....I really don't like the Yankees and you probably don't care for the Braves....I started the argument, now I am ready to close it....Have a good one man!

01-04...I really don't remember when he went to the Yankees....was it 05? or 04?

Actually 2000-2004

He played for the Yankees for half of a season in 2003 and was injured for most of the season in 2004. His juicing started with the Dodgers, and was terrible for the Yankees. He might have juiced but it's not like the Yanks benefitted from it.

I am actually tolerant of other teams and follow the Braves pretty closely. On the other hand, the only team I really get on is the Red Sox, and that is not because they outspend everyone, which is the stupid petty reasons why you and everyone hate the Yankees.

I hate the Red Sox for much more personal reasons.

Just don't come on here and claim things that aren't true like you did for the most part.

1) don't tell me what to do. 2) The things I claimed, (the Yankees get ousted early in the playoffs) is true and (they grossly overspend) is also true.

Later

Well I hesitate posting this, but I just heard Greg Paulus is a Yankees fan. Darn it.

New York only has 26 World Series Titles, not 27. It doesn't matter though, for the 2008 season all that will get you is a bunch of "boy this stadium sure has a bunch of memories, I'm sorry to see it go" quotes by baseball fans. It will do nothing to figure out a way to overcome Boston's potent lineup.
