What reasons are these supposed anti PED baseball writers that have kept Bonds, Clemens, Sosa, McGuire, etc out the Hall using to explain their votes for Ortiz?

I mean it can’t be because Bonds was an a-hole to them because Sosa was beloved by the writers

Someone make it make sense to me

The Baseball Hall of Fame is an illegitimate joke until they change the voting process.

I’ve been to the HOF many times including two inductions. I am done until there are major changes.

Bonds had body armor like no other and roided up so much he pretty much admitted he did it.

I don't think Ortiz is HOF, but that's me.

Well the same people who didn't care about Kirby Puckett beating the shite of women kept Schilling out because he said some mean things.

No and nor should they. They both broke the one rule that’s in every professional clubhouse and posted prominently

Wasn’t Ortiz connected to some shady stuff in the Dominican last year?

David Ortiz was a fat worthless player for the Twins. Took PED's became an All Star for the Red Sox

It’s fricking absurd and I have always loathed Bonds. These pretentious nerds carrying these 20 year grudges have turned the most prestigious hall of fame in all of sports into a complete goat rodeo

Where did Bagwell touch you ? Show the link to Bagwell doping. Not rumor...actual link to evidence or the Mitchell Report
