Too much steroids in this group

[@flame-sky7148]

I get the juice angle, but in the context of it is that while peds were going on for over a decade, baseball turned a blind eye, there was no testing. And the guy never tested positive. See there’s three categories. There are juicers in the hall, juicers who never tested positive, then there were juicers that tested positive and were suspended. What is crazy is that other sports hall of fames have people who juiced ( who even tested positive)!As for Griffey Jr. , he’s like Mantle and Trout. The best talent ever but as you mentioned betrayed by the body. As for Bonds ( & Judge) he went to college. Most of all the dead ball or live ball era guys except for Gehrig got their start earlier. We’ll never see anything like Bonds regardless of his indiscretion.

I even took a break and just watched him for a bit, even in golf his swing is just as smooth .. truly a memory I will never forget 🙏

[@briansolo]

Barry Bonds is the GOAT. I'm so very glad that he came out for this. I know that he often shies away from media, so this is really special. People can bring up the age-old argument against his inclusion in the Hall, but I saw an amazing stat the other day: if one were to take away all of his MVP seasons, he still hit 440 HRs and stole 330 bags. Unbelievable talent, and I think he belongs. Put an asterisk next to his name, I don't care. Barry Bonds is the greatest ballplayer of all time. Rest in peace, Mr. Mays.
