With Sammy Sosa sitting in the stands at Wrigley Field for today’s Mets-Cubs game it got both Bart Hubbach of the NY Post’s Mets Blog and Ed Ryan of Mets Fever wondering if he would be a good fit for the Mets. Both asked but neither had the answer to that all important question, Can Sammy Sosa play first base?

Also, Joel Sherman of the NY Post in his Blog Hardball wonders, injuries aside does Pedro Martinez have anything left?

Plus, Sean Deveney of The Sporting News writes about how the Second City teams always like to, as Cubs broadcaster said “Bite the Big Apple”.

Sammy Sosa is named among 3 other players in an affidavit that was unsealed by the U.S. Department of Justice, the International Herald Tribune reports.

Sosa, Pete Incaviglia, Geronimo Berroa and Allen Watson - were named in a May 2006 affidavit by Jeffrey Novitzky, a special agent for the Internal Revenue Service criminal division, which details his interview with the former pitcher Jason Grimsley.

The Grimsley affidavit indentifies Sosa as having talked about using amphetamines, Incaviglia as having used amphetamines, Berroa as having used steroids and Watson as having used unidentified performance-enhancing drugs.

It also names Jose Canseco, Lenny Dykstra, Glenallen Hill, Chuck Knoblauch, Rafael Palmeiro, David Segui and Miguel Tejada, all of whom were named in the Mitchell report.

A second affidavit was unsealed that named former Met Sid Fernandez, reports the Washington Post.

According to ESPN.com, Radomski received a $3,500 check from Fernandez that was written in February 2005, eight years after El Sid’s final major league appearance. Phone records cited in the affidavit say Rose Jr. called Radomski several times in 2001, ESPN.com reported. Rose Jr., the son of baseball’s career hits leader, was sentenced in May 2006 to one month in prison and five months of home detention for distributing a steroid alternative to his minor league teammates.
