Tacopina is a lousy lawyer, plain and simple. The confidentiality provisions are designed to protect the player, and the player is NOT subject to those provisions, i.e., the player (and by extension, his lawyer) is free to talk about his drug tests and any other issue under the drug policy at any time (as a parallel - doctor/patient confidentiality is the patient's privelege, and the patient is free to talk about his/her medical issues at any time). In other words, Tacopina could talk about any evidence without a waiver from MLB. That's a pathetically weak smokescreen on his part. It's similar to one of the basic principles of litigation - don't ask a question that you don't already know the answer to. He should be embarassed by his inability to answer any questions coherently - if he performed like that in court, he'd be guilty of legal malpractice.

He also admitted #13 had a relationship with Bosch. Interesting because #13's previous legal team denied any relationship. Bad day for the defense.

@dplennon: #AROD lawyer calls letter a "theatrical trap" then falls into own when says client had "relationship" with Bosch. t.co/QvImDeAw33
