Crappy Former Cubs Named In Mitchell Report
Written by wrigleyville   
Thursday, 13 December 2007
Here is the Mitchell Report, in pdf. Lots of former Cubs: Kent Mercker (no wonder he got so angry at Chip and Steve), Todd Pratt, Jerry Hairston Jr., Gary Matthews Jr., Todd Hundley, Benito Santiago, Rondell White and Glenallen Hill. At least those are the ones that I saw, and they are good examples of the bad to marginal players who used drugs to try to stay in the league. (Or, as Sarge just said: "Well it's obvious that peformance-enhancing drugs don't improve performance. That's a good lesson for the kids.") Also, there may be a future Cub in there, as well: Brian Roberts is on page 206. So who, exactly, are the Orioles demanding for him again? Update: Cubs.com notes some interesting Cub-centric information in the report: Karchner, who pitched for the Cubs from 1998-2000, was contacted by Mitchell's investigative staff. According to the report, Karchner said that during Spring Training in 1999, he observed two of his Cubs teammates injecting themselves with steroids in an apartment that Karchner was sharing with them. Karchner would not identify the players. One of them brought the steroids to the apartment, but was "afraid of needles and therefore asked the second player to administer the shot." The second player injected the first with steroids in the buttocks and then injected himself, according to the report. Later that season, Karchner said he was offered steroids by some of his Cubs teammates. Karchner would not disclose the names, but said "the conversations he had with them involved the general cost of steroids and discussions of 'stacking' to build lean muscle necessary for pitchers." Karchner did not report these incidents to anyone at the time, the report said. Anyone know who Karchner's roommates were?
