The New York Times reports:
Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte and Miguel Tejada were among the players that a former major league pitcher accused of using performance-enhancing drugs, according to a federal agent’s affidavit, the Los Angeles Times reported.
The player reportedly making the accusations was Jason Grimsley, who used to play with Clemens and Pettitte on the New York Yankees and is now out of baseball.
Clemens and Pettitte, now teammates on the Houston Astros, denied the allegations Sunday. Baltimore teammates Brian Roberts, Jay Gibbons and Tejada also were implicated in the sworn statement, the Times said Saturday on its Web site and in Sunday editions.
“I just think it’s incredibly dangerous to sit out there and just throw names out there,” Clemens said Sunday before the Astros played in Atlanta. “I haven’t seen (the report), nor do I need to see it.”
I am very aggressive towards stuff like this normally, but I do have this strange belief that one should have proof first, before accusing people of using performance-enhancing drugs.
