Steroids Investigation: Fair and Balanced?
The man tapped to head Bud Selig's steroid investigation, former Senator George Mitchell, may not be the best man for the job, contrary to popular opinion.
Joel Sherman of the New York Post highlights the senator's possible conflicts that may create a further 'shadow of doubt.' These include Mitchell's involvement with the Boston Red Sox and ESPN (owned by Disney, and subsequently has a TV contract with MLB), and finally his chairmanship of an investigation of the Salt Lake City Olympics, where he served on the same board with MLBPA's Donald Fehr.
