WELL Bobby V on Baseball tonight... claims that on his teams there were several times he had taken out corked bats that were mixed in with the game bats... he also said that those (croked) bats were used for BP that players used to please the crowd...
so I dunno...
but they took all his bats for inspection... so if they find another one... HE is def fucked...

it's gonna be a league wide cover-up. Lots of managers and former managers are gonna make excuses so that they can salvage what good image was left for baseball.
Truth of the matter is cheating has been going in baseball for years.
I think stealing signals, and scuffing balls is worse than corking a bat IMO.
Anybody remember when Kevin Gross had sand paper in his glove and when the ump walked up to the mound he threw his hands up to act like he didn't know what was going on and you would see the sand paper fly out?

By not having that much of an effect i mean, even if he was using it the whole time, a corked bat isnt going to help u hit homeruns if ur not a great hitter, u still have to have a great approach at the plate and put a good swing on a ball to drive it, the only difference the cork would make is it would travel 408 feet instead of 404 feet. But to the average person whos not gonna think about that stuff its definitely gonna damage his rep.
