Grady Sizemore and Deadspin

Deadspin this morning gets a letter from the Department of Investigations of the Office of the Commissioner of Major League Baseball, regarding their publication of naked pictures of baseball player Grady Sizemore:

The photos posted in the article cited below are the property of Grady Sizemore. They were stolen from a personal computer. We’ve begun an investigation and request that you immediately remove Mr. Sizemore’s property from the posting. We also ask that you preserve any records associated with its submission in anticipation of a criminal complaint to be filed with local law enforcement.

Many questions.

1. The MLB’s job is to track down pictures “stolen from” a ballplayer’s personal computer?

2. “Stolen from”?

2.5. One gets the impression that Mr. Boland is not a lawyer.

3. Chilling, though, the request to preserve records, promising as it does a future demand. (Which will never occur.)
