    I will always hate Barry Bonds, as I have since the 1980s, but the Hall of Fame is diminished without him.https://twitter.com/billjamesonline/status/1339721923853430784 …

    If Barry Bonds or Gary Sheffield were to go into the Hall of Fame, either way, they'd be getting one hell of a hitter. But if one was to go in, which one would you prefer that it was?

        Here's the thing: Barry Bonds? Roger Clemens? Pete Rose? You're not fooling anybody pretending your museum of the greatest ballplayers ever doesn't have a place for them.

        I know what you mean. He wore the ugly Halloween colors, but dangit, the man could hit. And he was born in the town next to where I grew up, so I have that whole affinity going.

        Sheffield should be in for his bat wag alone.

        Both should be. I understand why they're not but I think one day fairly soon that resistance will wear down.

        You can make a decent argument that Bonds would have made it into the Hall of Fame easily without cheating. Of course, he cheated though.
