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 highly doubt a single voter on any committee or on the larger writers ballots has ever thought Kent was better than Bonds. Bonds is not out for performance reasons, and so comparisons like this are completely missing what it is about.
