Could one of the reasons he hasn't been playing at a HOF level these past few years be because he couldn't cheat like he was before, during these past few years? If I had a vote, I would most definitely take that into serious consideration. But as Peter pointed out, his one really bad year was the shortened 2020 season. Still seems to be hitting well despite not always knowing what is coming.
