Admit it: In your heart, you knew it was A-Rod. Its OK. I thought it might have been too.
Last night the New York Times reported that Major League Baseballs efforts to purchase the Biogenesis documents was spurred by rumors that a ballplayer named in the documents was himself trying to purchase them, with an eye toward destroying them.
Which, yikes. If there is an actual basis to this, one wonders if MLB might consider it enough, in and of itself, to consider A-Rod as uncooperative with their investigation and thus suspend him summarily.
At the moment, though, I think MLB would really have to explain why it believes A-Rod was attempting to destroy them. What the basis for that is. Because thats a pretty serious accusation to hurl without a strong foundation for it.
