Only if you deduct points for being an arse... which you obviously do - it's the only way he would not be in any top 20 AT WORST.

If we discredit everything he did his entire time in san fran... he still has 3 very legit MVP seasons. Only 10 other players have done that.

Argue it out among Sosa/ARod/Palmeiro for second.



He was the best player. When they were all pharmaceutically enhanced, none of them were on Bonds level.

1.42 OPS....best in MLB history, yes?

Buck Showalter intentionally walked Bonds with the bases loaded in the bottom of the 9th and a two run lead.

This happened in 1998, which is before when is widely believed to have started juicing. That didn't happen to a roided up McGwire or Sosa, but to an unroided Bonds. That's how good he was.
