The House May Invite Players Mitchell Report Hearings

On Thursday Rep. Tom Davis told several media outlets that players weren't going to be invited to Congress. Today the Post is reporting

Phil Schiliro, chief of staff for Rep. Henry Waxman, the chairman of the House Government Reform Committee, said his boss is still considering whether to invite players, including Roger Clemens, to the Jan. 15 hearing on the Mitchell Report.

...A decision probably would not be made until early January. Congress began its year-end recess Wednesday night.

"We're not interested in having players here for the sake of having players here," Schiliro said. "If there's something constructive or important by having players here we'll do that."

I just hope these hearings aren't going to be as embarrassing for Major League Baseball as the first one was.
