Barry was a great player in Pittsburgh, he certainly seemed headed for the HOF. No one who have guessed that he would hit twice as many HRs @ 37 than he did @ 28 in a pitcher's park. He cheated plain and simple so we will never know how great he "would have" been. That's his fault not ours.

Robin Yount hit .285, with a .772 OPS, and won one gold glove. He was named to only three all star teams. Let's keep him in perspective.

I agree with you on Bonds though -- he was fabulous pre-juicing, best all-around player in baseball hands down.

Mantle was, and still is, the ONLY player I ever saw play who could make the hairs on your neck stand up & tingle when he came to the plate.
