If we halve Bonds WAR and HR because we assume he broke the rules:
WAR 81.4 HR 381

Did Kent ever lead the league in anything at all?

I never cared for Bonds but he should be in. Clemens too.

Maybe add batboys and peanut hawkers to the next ballot.
I think the HOF is making it clear that if you're a cheater, you're not getting in. It's not about stats at all. I would love to know the break down of the votes. My instinct is that none of the former players voted for Bonds and Clemens.
