...AT 2PM.
According to reports, SEVERAL prominent NY Yankees will be included in the report.
Supposedly, it will include past MVP winners, past CY Young winners, past All-Stars, etc. Preliminary reports are saying the list could include 60+ names of current and former players.
This is going to be a crazy day for MLB.

of course who knows what Ruth, Aaron, et. al. were on? Amphetamines more than likely - they've been in use for decades in all sports. No way Ruth could live like he did and perform without some sort of "boost".

[VB] This is Babe Ruth, the Sultan of Swat, the Bambino, I smoke twenty-five G-d #$%# cuban cigars a day. I had meat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I messed eighteen prostitutes a night! 'course, I'm dead now. I'm up here in heaven. Lou Gehrig is up here with me. God love Lou Gehrig. Jesus Christ, poor Lou Gehrig. Died of Lou Gehrig's disease. How the hell did he not see that coming? You know. We used to tell him, Lou, there's a disease with your name all over it, pal! There ain't no Babe Ruth disease, I'll tell you that much right now. Have a hot dog and a Hummer. Go ahead, it's on me."
