Players' reactions
Several former members of the New York Mets were quoted in the April 28, 2007 edition of The New York Times as remembering Radomski. Dave Magadan, former hitting coach for the Boston Red Sox and former Met from 1986–1992, was quoted as saying "He was huge, I mean huge" in reference to Radomski's physical build. Howard Johnson, former hitting coach for the Mets, and former third baseman from 1985-1993 was quoted as saying "He was a clubhouse kid, one of several, one of the kids that were there," when asked about Radomski. Ron Darling, former pitcher for the Mets from 1983-1991 had no recollection of the former team employee.
Reaction of the New York Mets
On April 26, 2007 the New York Mets issued a statement on behalf of the entire organization prior to the start of the team's game with the Washington Nationals at RFK Stadium:
"We were surprised and disappointed to learn of the guilty plea today. The conduct in question is diametrically opposed to the values and standards of the Mets organization and our owners. We are and always have been adamantly opposed to the use of performance-enhancing drugs and continue to support Major League Baseball's efforts to eradicate any such use in our game."
Reaction of former Mets general manager Steve Phillips
Steve Phillips, former general manager of the Mets from 1997–2003, and former analyst for ESPN's Baseball Tonight, wrote an article in reference to Radomski's guilty plea, where he stated:
Mitchell Report
Radomski was a prominent witness in former United States Senate Majority Leader George J. Mitchell's investigation into the use of performance-enhancing substances in Major League Baseball.
Bases Loaded
Radomski authored a book in January 2009 titled Bases Loaded - The inside story of the steroid era by the central figure in the Mitchell Report. In this book, he names and describes many of his relationships with Major League Baseball players, his steroid sales, and his interactions with Sen. Mitchell and Jeff Novitzki.
