Here Comes More Fun
Dr. Galea, who is known to have treated A-Rod, was indicted today. Among the interesting details is a list of 23 athletes who received treatment, when they received it and what they received.
Before you label A-Rod as "Athlete B", it's important to note that he wasn't in New York on at least one of the dates where treatment was given. In fact, looking at the Yankees and Mets schedules, the best guess for the identity of "Athlete B" would be an injured player who wasn't traveling with his team or someone who was in their offseason. (If I had to bet, I would bet on an injured New York baseball player based on a description of some of the treatments.)
"Athlete E" could be a Red Sox because they were in town those two dates, but it could also be an offseason athlete.
Athletes M, P, L and Q are probably not baseball players because they all received treatment in Cleveland on August 27th and the Indians were in the middle of a road trip.
What does it all mean? Another round of names leaking out and blank stares from players when confronted with the evidence. What will be interesting to see is since this seems to include players outside MLB will other sports finally receive the scrutiny that baseball has?

It's pouring here at the blog's southern HQ, about 9 miles from 161st Street. I would guess they won't play, but the best source for info is the YankeesWeather feed on Twitter.
