Cashman's Reaction

Brian Cashman says just the right things today:

But Cashman, addressing the media at the team's minor league complex, wasn't ready to say he was confident that Rodriguez was clean during his Yankee years. In talking about the game in general, he said, "I'm not confident about anything in the past anymore."

"From (2004) on, we've had testing procedures in place -- that's the best I can go off of," Cashman said. "I'm not here to represent I'm confident of anything of anybody. We've lived through a tough stretch that has shattered that confidence level. If you asked me that question five years ago, I'd be giving you a different answer."

Exactly. We're in a low confidence environment. It's going to be tough to defend anyone.

Oh, but wait -- if we are now in a "low confidence environment", then shouldn't even the kind of confidence that Cash feels in A-Rod's cleanliness count as "very confident"?

You can pretty much figure at this point that everybody the NYY signed was a juicer.

Ummm I would assume all players were juicing, not just those that played with the NYY. You're naive if you think that isn't the case.

Which has what to do with what? NYY had a hall of shame of juicers. Making excuses about what other people did is what 6 yr olds do.
