So, once again “lawyers with knowledge of the drug-testing results” from the 2003 baseball season broke the law and leaked information about the confidential tests, this time fingering Sammy Sosa as one of the 104 players who tested positive to the New York Times. These tests are under seal as the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in California decides if the government can keep the results they took from the lab under questionable circumstances in April of 2004. There was no investigation when the “laywers” famously leaked the first of those positives — Alex Rodriguez — to SI, so guessing there will be no investigation this time, either. Odd, when you consider how aggressive the investigators were on leaks that hurt their case. Or how they squeezed Greg Anderson’s wife and mother-in-law to get him to talk. And how they recently decided to drive the woefully bankrupt state of California even deeper into debt by appealing the Balco judge’s ruling on evidence, once again prolonging the case against Barry Bonds.
Makes you wonder just who is doing the leaking?
